Lyrics Jimmy Needham

Jimmy Needham

The Gospel

The Gospel, the Gospel

Fragrance in words

The sea of my soul

Is calmed when it’s heard

Peace to the broken

The captives set free

May the Gospel of Jesus

Wash over me

The Gospel, the Gospel

My freedom explained

No more shall these garments

I’m wearing be stained

The old man is missing

The new man is free

May the Gospel of Jesus

Wash over me

[Chorus:]

Oh bless the Lord

Oh bless the Lord

Though my sin was black as night

Oh bless His name

I’m not the same

Your Gospel washed me white

The Gospel, the Gospel

She’s good and she’s true

She cost quite a fortune

To make all things new

So breathe in with faith

And out with his peace

May the Gospel of Jesus

Wash over me

[Chorus x2]

Oh bless the Lord

Oh bless the Lord

Though my sin was black as night

Oh bless His name

I’m not the same

Oh bless His name

I’m not the same

Oh bless His name

I’m not the same

Your Gospel washed me white
