underneath the blood lyrics

I was just a young man with a burning fuse
Headed in the wrong way till 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 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
Underneath the blood pulled up from the mud
Feet on solid ground what was lost is found
I'm an innocent man
