Verse 1
You know how to keep me safe
You cover me so I won’t be found
In you Lord, I’m safe and secure
So I will stay under the blood
Verse 2
The enemy cannot find me there
‘Cause I’m protected from all harm
Your eyes never leave my side
So I will stay under the blood
Pre-Chorus
There’s no place I'd rather be
No other hiding place
Jesus you’re my shield
My protector
Chorus
I will fear no evil no
I’m hidden in the blood
No, I won’t move
I’m gonna stay under the blood
Verse 3
My strong fortress, defender of my life
My strong tower, my deliverer
My rock, I have confidence in you
So I will stay under the blood
Verse 4
The enemy cannot find me there
‘Cause I’m protected from all harm
And your eyes, they never leave my side
So I will stay under the blood
Pre-Chorus
There’s no place I'd rather be
No other hiding place
Jesus you’re my shield
My protector
Chorus
I will fear no evil no
I’m hidden in the blood
No, I won’t move
I’m gonna stay under the blood
Bridge
So I plead the blood of Jesus
Upon you against the enemy
Over your life
Over your families
Over your children
‘Cause His blood speaks better things
It’s by the blood you’re justified
So don’t move
You gotta stay under the blood
Chorus
There’s no place I’d rather be
No other hiding place
Jesus you’re my shield
My protector
I will fear no evil no
I’m hidden in the blood
No I won’t move
I’m gonna stay under the blood (Stand secure in the blood)
Outro
Under the blood (I’m divinely protected)
Under the blood
No, I won’t move
I’m gonna stay under the blood
I will fear no evil no
I’m hidden in the blood
No, I won’t move
I’m gonna stay under the blood
No I won’t move
I’m gonna stay under the blood
No I won’t move
I’m gonna stay under the blood

Meaning & Inspiration
Under The Blood is a song about shelter and protection, with the blood of Jesus as the place of safety. The opening lines describe God as the one who keeps the singer safe and covered, so that the enemy cannot find them. The pre-chorus says there is no other hiding place and names Jesus as shield and protector.
The language draws on the psalms, where God is called fortress, tower, rock, and deliverer, and the song repeats several of those titles in a verse. The statement "I will fear no evil" echoes Psalm 23:4, and the line about the blood speaking better things points to Hebrews 12:24.
In the bridge the singer turns outward, pleading the blood of Jesus over others, including families and children, and saying that it is by the blood that a person is justified. That wording matches Romans 5:9. The closing repeats a vow not to move, which presents the protection as something to remain in with steady trust rather than a brief experience.
