“Bearing shame and scoffing rude, In my place condemned He stood’. Sealed my pardon with His blood: Hallelujah! What a Savior!” Philip P. Bliss.
All we had to contribute to our salvation was sin. Jesus contributed His blood. And, His blood washes away all of our sins. Eph.1:7.
Romans 3:23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;
Below are some wonderful songs written about the precious blood of Jesus:
— There Is Power In The Blood
— Are You Washed In The Blood?
— There Is a Fountain Filled With Blood
— Nothing But The Blood

“The blood that Jesus shed for me. — Way back on Calvary, — The blood that gives me strength from day to day, — It will never lose its power.
Chorus
“It reaches to the highest mountain; — It flows to the lowest valley. — The blood gives me strength from day to day, — It will never lose its power.
“It soothes my doubts and calms my fears. — And it dries all my tears. — The blood that gives me strength from day to day, — It will never lose its power.”
Andrae Crouch 1966
