in depth look at poem: This poem is about the power of Jesus' blood. There is a wonderful power within His blood that we rarely have full appreciation of. I heard a message where a guy said that the key to victory was in Jesus' blood. We have a powerful weapon against the devil in Jesus' blood. If we plead the blood of Christ over a situation then we will have victory.


Jesus' blood

just one drop of Jesus' blood
gives strength to the weak,
love to the lonely

just one drop of Jesus' blood
has the power to heal any disease,
to protect you from anything

just one drop of Jesus' blood
gives peace to the anxious,
hope to the hopeless

just one drop of Jesus' blood
has the power to cast out demons,
to cover the sins of man

just one drop of Jesus' blood
gives mercy to the sinner,
joy to the sad

just one drop of Jesus' blood
has the power to bind the devil,
to heal broken hearts

just one drop of Jesus' blood
gives faith to the unbelieving,
revival to the broken down

just one drop of Jesus' blood
has the power to give you joy,
to fill your emptiness

just one drop of Jesus' blood
gives sight to blind eyes,
food to the hungry
