Only Blood Lyrics - Angaleena Presley

She's lost and feelin' lonely 

Not knowin' what to do 

Lookin' for salvation from the 

Backslider pew 

Preacher's words brought comfort 

And he made her believe 

Only blood can set you free 

Preacher was a young man 

Barely 29 

When the seed of love was planted 

There in that receiving line 

Before too long they took their vows 

And became a family 

Only blood can set you free 

Only blood is strong enough to wash away your sins 

Only blood is strong enough to change the way you've been 

Between Jesus and the devil, there's a path for you and me 

Only blood can set you free 

He broke that enscription 

Inside her wedding band 

But soon she came to know him 

Like the back of his hand 

She clung to her Bible 

And got down on her knees 

Only blood can set you free 

Only blood is strong enough to wash away your sins 

Only blood is strong enough to change the way you've been 

Between Jesus and the devil, there's a path for you and me 

Only blood can set you free 

He came home one evenin' 

And much to his surprise 

He was greeted with a pistol 

And a fire in her black eye 

She said, "I've talked to Jesus 

And he's been tellin' me 

Only blood can set me free" 

Only blood is strong enough to wash away your sins 

Only blood is strong enough to change the way you've been 

Between Jesus and the devil, there's a path for you and me 

Only blood can set you free 

Only blood can set you free
