The Oak Ridge Boys lead us in worship with the classic words of ‘There Is Power In The Blood.’
The hymn was written and composed by Lewis Edgar Jones back in 1865. The inspiring lyrics remind us that there is strength in the Name of the Lord.
“Would you be free from your passion and pride
There’s power in the blood, power in the blood
Come for a cleansing to Calvary’s tide
There's wonderful power in the blood”
The Oak Ridge Boys are known for their unique blend of country music and gospel. This iconic group consists of Duane Allen singing lead vocals, Joe Bonsall singing tenor, William Lee Golden with his baritone voice, and Richard Sterban singing deep bass. They all joined the group at different times, but this particular lineup of men have been together since 1973.
Today, they’re at Gaither Studios for a live performance of the beloved hymn, ‘There is Power In The Blood.’
“There is power, power, wonder-working power
In the blood of the Lamb
There is power, power, wonder-working power
In the precious blood of the Lamb”
The lyrics of this hymn are the perfect reminder that Jesus sacrificed His life to free us from our sins. Now, we are all redeemed.
Let us lift our voices and sing of God’s many blessings in our lives.
