Verse 1

Everything changed
It's getting harder to recognize
The person I was
Before I encountered Christ
I don't walk like I used to
I don't talk like I used to
I've been washed from the inside
I've been washed from the inside out

Chorus

Hallelujah hallelujah
I know it was the blood
Could've only been the blood
Hallelujah hallelujah
I know it was the blood
Could've only been the blood

Verse 2

I cannot explain
But nothing's more
Real than this
In the presence of God
Oh what my heart experienced
When my shame hit the wayside
And my sin met the Most High
I was washed from the inside
I was washed from the inside out

Chorus

Hallelujah hallelujah
I know it was the blood
Could've only been the blood
Hallelujah hallelujah
I know it was the blood
Could've only been the blood

Let me tell you
It's only by the blood
