Lyrics

I'm overwhelmed by the power of Your blood
I'm overwhelmed by the glory of Your cross
Because my sins are washed away
It's through Your blood I can truly say
I'm overwhelmed, I'm overwhelmed, I'm overwhelmed with You

I'm ovwerwhelmed by the grace that sets me free
I stand amazing at how Your sacrifice redeemed me
Now my sins are washed away
It's through Your blood I can truly say
I'm overwhelmed, I'm overwhelmed, I'm overwhelmed with You

It's through the power of the risen Lamb
No greater love than this could ever be compared
To a life laid down at Calvary
Through Your sacrifice I clearly see
I'm overwhelmed, I'm overwhelmed, I'm overwhelmed with You

I'm overwhelmed by the guilt I could not face
I stand amazed at the price You chose to pay
Because my sins are washed away
It's through Your blood I can truly say
II'm overwhelmed, I'm overwhelmed, I'm overwhelmed with You

I'm overwhelmed by the power of Your love
I'm overwhelmed by the glory of Your cross
I'm overwhelmed that Your grace would set me free
I'm so amazed that You would save a wretch life me

You came and washed my sins away
By Your blood I can truly say
I'm overwhelmed that You would save someone like me
I'm so amazed and it brings me to my knees
I'm overwhelmed, I'm overwhelmed, I'm overwhelmed with You
