Covered in armor to shield from enemies’ deadly fiery darts,

Head covered with metal crown to guard the clear thinking brow.

Armed with weapon to protect and defend,

There he lay on the ground.

Blood flowing down his arm and blood dripping, staining his brow,

For my liberty he died.

Not for my thanks did he nobly vow,

For what God freely gives he would fight against evil intent;

Freedom and liberty was well worth the cost.

So took he to the battlefield for victory, and for my freedom his life was lost.

Through the blood victory is won. I will not forget…

And then one greater than he gave his only son,

Equipped him with no armor to shield from enemies’ deadly fiery darts,

No metal crown to protect his righteous brow,

No weapon to protect and defend,

And there he lay with blood streaming down his side.

Beneath his crown of thorns blood dripping, staining his brow,

For my liberty he died.

Not for my thanks did he nobly vow,

For what God freely gives he would fight against evil intent;

Freedom and liberty was well worth the cost.

So took he to Golgotha’s hill for victory, and for my freedom his life was lost.

Through the blood victory is won. I will not forget…

I will not forget what price was paid.

I will not forget the one who shed his blood

My liberty to win.

I will not forget…

 

“I know it was the blood, I know it was the blood for me…”
