Jesus, You're beautiful
Your blood speaks a better word

Oh, crying out from the earth
The blood of Jesus in the heavens
On the earth, cries out for me
It speaks a better word over your sickness
Over your deliverance
He says, "You are free"
He says, "By My stripes, you are healed today"
Yeah, you are healed and made free when He said
Your blood, Your blood
By Your blood

Yeah, 'cause You take the good things
Out of the bad things
You pull the precious from the worthless soul
Yeah, You take the good things
Out of the bad things
You pull the precious from the worthless soul

Let's say, "I am a prisoner"
Come on, say:
I am a prisoner
I am a prisoner
I am a prisoner
To the hope within me
I am a prisoner
I am a prisoner
I am a prisoner
To the hope within me
I am a prisoner
I am a prisoner
I am a prisoner
To the hope within me
I am a prisoner
I am a prisoner
I am a prisoner
To the hope within me (Somebody dance to freedom in this house)
