I was just a young man With a burning fuse Headed in the wrong way 'Til I heard the news 'Bout a substitution Blood shed for me 'Bout a grace so amazing it can make a man free
Now I'm rescued, pulled from the mud It's all behind me, under the blood
Underneath the blood Through the cleansing flood Guilt is left behind Never brought to mind I'm an innocent man Underneath the blood
Now a little older I recall the past Farther from me Than east is from west But in all the wisdom That my growing brings I can't seem to put down all my childish things
Where do I go when I've missed the mark And my heart starts feeling like it's stained and dark Only know one way to go I take it to the crimson flood
Underneath the blood Through the cleansing flood Guilt is left behind Never brought to mind Underneath the blood Pulled up from the mud Feet on solid ground What was lost is found I'm an innocent man Underneath the blood
I'm an innocent man Underneath the blood
Underneath the blood Through the cleansing flood Guilt is left behind Never brought to mind Underneat the blood Pulled up from the mud Feet on solid ground What was lost is found
