Lyrics

VS. 1
THE ISRAELITES WERE WAITING
FOR A LONG, LONG NIGHT OF DEATH
ALL OF EGYPTS FIRST BORN
WOULD DRAW THEIR FINAL BREATH
YET GOD HAD MADE PROVISION
FOR HIS OWN TO BE SAVED
THE BLOOD UPON THE DOOR POST WOULD KEEP OLD DEATH AWAY


VS. 2
A MOTHER HELD HER CHILDREN WITH COMFORT AND WITH CARE
SWEET PEACE FILLED THE HOUSE THAT NIGHT AS FATHER SAID HIS PRAYER
DEAR GREAT GOD IN HEAVEN
THANK YOU FOR YOUR LOVE
THANK YOU FOR SALVATION PURCHASED BY THE BLOOD


CH.
O DEATH – MOVE ALONG
THIS HOUSE IS COVERED BY THE BLOOD
O DEATH – MOVE ALONG
THIS HOUSE IS COVERED BY THE BLOOD
WE HAVE NO NEED TO FEAR
THE CHILD OF GOD LIVES HERE
O DEATH – MOVE ALONG
THIS HOUSE IS COVERED BY THE BLOOD


VS. 3
ONE DAY THIS OLD HOUSE OF CLAY WILL CRUMBLE TO THE GROUND
BUT DEATH HAS NO DOMINION
HE CAN’T HOLD ME DOWN
I’LL SOON BE RESURRECTED VERY MUCH ALIVE
FOR THIS OLD HOUSE IS COVERED BY THE PRECIOUS BLOOD OF CHRIST
