Angaleena Presley - Only Blood lyrics

She was lost and feelin' lonely
Not knowin' what to do
Lookin' for salvation from the backslider pew
The preacher's words brought comfort
And he made her believe
Only blood can set you free

Preacher was a young man, barely twenty-nine
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 put that inscription inside
Her wedding band
And 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 eyes 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
Penitence, penitence, penitence
