I Plead the Blood

The Blood it covers all my sin,
 It brings me peace and joy within,
 He died on the cross there that day,
 The Lamb slain to take my sins away.

 I plead the Blood of Jesus over me,
 I plead the Blood that saved and set me free.
 His Blood was shed at Calvary,
 I plead the Blood of Jesus over me.

 When Satan accuses me of sin,
 He says, "Plead guilty, you're condemned."
 I give old Satan my plea,
 I plead the Blood of Jesus over me.
