Blood on My Hands

The prompt for Round 105 (OCT.11 TO OCT. 18) is:
"Blood on my hands".

For many years
I gave no thought
about salvation
or how it was bought.

It had been said
the cost was free.
Our Savior paid it
there on Calvary.

I had no knowledge
of what this meant
until I knew Jesus
one hundred percent.

My sins were forgiven.
Now, a free man,
washed whiter than snow.
There's blood on my hands.

I now understand
that with each sin
those nails were driven
much deeper within.

His blood on my hands,
yet, I was forgiven.
For sinners like me
He had arisen.

He hung on the cross.
He paid the price.
This sinless, good man
was a sacrifice.

His blood on my hands
covers my soul
for it's by His blood
that we are made whole.
