The Blood Cried Out

With my soul in the balance
My accuser made his case
It was clear that I was guilty
From the look on my face
I was sure of my sentence
And resigned to my fate
Then the judgement made it certain
And I was led away

Then the blood cried out
I must be set free
Hell has no hold
On a sinner that's redeemed
For God so loved the world
And Calvary left no doubt
"Release the prisoner"
Came the shout
When the blood cried out

I want to thank my two attorneys
Mercy and grace
For seeking my pardon
When I could not afford to pay
But every ounce of my praise
Is reserved for the One
Who led me straight to the cross
Where my freedom was won

Then the blood cried out
I must be set free
Hell has no hold
On a sinner that's redeemed
For God so loved the world
And Calvary left no doubt
"Release the prisoner"
Came the shout
When the blood cried out

Then the blood cried out
I must be set free
Hell has no hold
On a sinner that's redeemed
For God so loved the world
And Calvary left no doubt
"Release the prisoner"
Came the shout
When the blood cried out

"Release the prisoner"
Came the shout
When the blood cried out
