Lyrics
Verse 1
We can't forget God's sacrifice He saved this world with his son's life God must have agonized and grieved To watch his child suffer and bleed But he knew the blood that his son spilled there Would save the world from her despair So there 2000 years ago God put his power in the flow And the sins of the world could not pollute it The years and time could not dilute it
Chorus
Jesus blood still washes The blood still cleanses After all these years The blood still has miraculous power
Verse 2
If you need healing fopr your life You've tossed and turned and prayed allnight Because the doctor said to you There was nothing he could do My friend no matter how you feel Keep saying by his stripes I'm healed That's when the blood will take control And let it's healing virtue flow When Jesus blood is covering you Every sickness, demon, devil has to move
Chorus
Bridge
So if you're sick Let his blood wash you If you are a sinner Let it cleanse you If you're in trouble Let his blood cover you
Chorus
Vamp
It still washes It still cleanses It still covers It still delivers It still healing It's still redeeming After all these years(repeat2X) The blood still has miraculous power

Meaning & Inspiration
The Blood Still Has Miraculous Power reflects on the saving significance of the blood of Jesus. Its opening verse moves from the suffering of the Son to the claim that sin cannot pollute or weaken what Christ accomplished. The chorus condenses that message into three actions: the blood washes, cleanses, and retains its power. Rather than treating the crucifixion as a distant event, the song presents its benefits as active for people seeking forgiveness, deliverance, and hope.
The later sections connect atonement with healing, drawing directly on the biblical phrase about being healed by the wounds of Christ. The bridge broadens the appeal to sickness, sin, and trouble, while the vamp repeats the vocabulary of cleansing, covering, deliverance, healing, and redemption. These lines may be read alongside New Testament passages that describe Christ offering himself and cleansing the conscience. Across its repetition, the song keeps attention on the sufficiency of Jesus rather than on human merit.
