Romans 5:8-9 But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.
[9] Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him.
Only the blood of Jesus Christ can justify us {make us good enough to go to Heaven) when we believe.
It took a lot of love and power to forgive our sins.
There Is Power in The Blood

Would you be free from the burden of sin? — There’s pow’r in the blood, pow’r in the blood; — Would you o’er evil a victory win? — There’s wonderful pow’r in the blood.
CHORUS:
There is pow’r, pow’r, wonder-working pow’r — In the blood of the Lamb; — There is pow’r, pow’r, wonder-working pow’r — In the precious blood of the Lamb.
Would you be free from your passion and pride? — There’s pow’r in the blood, pow’r in the blood; — Come for a cleansing to Calvary’s tide; — There’s wonderful pow’r in the blood. - - -
Would you be whiter, much whiter than snow? — There’s pow’r in the blood, pow’r in the blood; — Sin-stains are lost in its life-giving flow; — There’s wonderful pow’r in the blood. - - -
Would you do service for Jesus your King? — There’s pow’r in the blood, pow’r in the blood; — Would you live daily His praises to sing? — There’s wonderful pow’r in the blood. - - -
