Kirk Franklin - The Blood Song Lyrics

Complimentary "The Blood Song" Ringtone

So many different religions 
And so many different churches 
And if God really loves me 
Then why does life keep hurting me 
If you ever ask these questions 
Well my friend, I got the answer
Just listen

You have the power 
To make the season 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 safe within not by Your skin 
But because your blood was red 

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 inspite 
The tears for us You shed 
Doesn't matter what color You are 
As long as Your blood was red 

[chorus] 
For it's strong enough, to wash away my sins 
And it's pure enough, to cleanse me deep within 
And it's 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 

We may be different but 
The God we serves the same 
Yet every Sunday we seperate 
And bring our Father pain 
Your name is higher than any other 
Yet You took my place instead 
Ahora mis pecados son limpios 
Because Your blood was red 

[chorus] 

Oh, precious is that flow 
That makes white as snow 
No other fount I know 

[soloist #1] 
Doesn't matter what color You are 

[choir]
As long as Your blood was red 

[soloist #2]
Doesn't matter what color You are 

[choir]
As long as Your blood was red 

[soloist #3]
Doesn't matter what color I am

[choir]
As long as Your blood was red
[soloist #3]
As long as my blood was red
