Elevation Worship – Better Word lyrics

[Verse 1]
What can wash away the guilty stain
After all the wrong I've done?
I've already tried a thousand ways
But it's never been enough
What could be enough?
 
[Chorus]
Nothing but the blood
A better word was spoken
Oh, I know it was nothing but the blood
Every curse was broken
Oh, I know it was nothing but the blood
Nothing but the blood
 
[Verse 2]
And when I'm reminded of my shame
To the fountain I will run
Every failure covered now in grace
For the Lamb has overcome
What can overcome?
 
[Chorus]
Nothing but the blood
A better word was spoken
Oh, I know it was nothing but the blood
Every curse was broken
Oh, I know it was nothing but the blood
A better word was spoken
Oh, I know it was nothing but the blood
Every curse was broken
Oh, I know it was nothing but the blood
Nothing but the blood
 
[Bridge]
On that cross, hallelujah
I left my shame where the nails were
Jesus Christ, O Lamb of God
Be lifted higher forever
On that cross, hallelujah
I left my shame where the nails were
Jesus Christ, O Lamb of God
Be lifted higher forever
 
[Chorus]
Nothing but the blood
A better word was spoken
Oh, I know it was nothing but the blood
Every curse was broken
Oh, I know it was nothing but the blood
A better word was spoken
Oh, I know it was nothing but the blood
Every curse was broken
Oh, I know it was nothing but the blood
Nothing but the blood
 
[Bridge]
On that cross, hallelujah
I left my shame where the nails were
Jesus Christ, O Lamb of God
Be lifted higher forever
On that cross, hallelujah
I left my shame where the nails were
Jesus Christ, O Lamb of God
Be lifted higher forever
 
[Outro]
Be lifted higher
