Kirk Franklin and Family - The Blood Song Lyrics

So many different religions, and so many different churches, and
if God really
loves me, then why does life keep hurting me? If you've ever
asked any of
these questions, well my friend I've got the answer, just
listen.

Verse 1: (Donnie McClurkin)
You have the power to make the seasons change. The river flows
for You; the
wind whispers Your name. For me You left Your throne, and
traded crown for
thorns instead. I'm saved within, not by Your skin, but
because Your blood was
red.

Verse 2: (Crystal Lewis)
Some say You're black, You're white, they question if
You're real. We treat
You like we treat ourselves. I wonder how You feel, to see Your
children
fight, in spite the tears for us You shed. Doesn't matter
what color You are,
as long as Your blood was red, for it's...

Chorus 1: (All)
Strong enough, to wash away my sins. Pure enough, to cleanse
me deep within.
Real enough, to find me when I'm lost. Great enough, to die
upon the cross.
Doesn't matter what color You are, as long as Your blood was
red.

Verse 3: (Jaci Velasquez)
We may be different, but the God we serve's the same. Yet
every Sunday we
separate, and bring the Father pain. Your name is higher than
any other, yet
You took my place instead. Y ahora mis pecados son limpios,
because Your blood
was red.
Repeat Chorus 1:

Chorus 2: (All)
Oh, precious is the flow that makes me white as snow. No other
fount' I
know. Doesn't matter what color You are, as long as Your
blood was red.
Doesn't matter what color You are, as long as Your blood was
red. Doesn't
matter what color I am, as long as my blood was red.
