Blood On The Scales Lyrics

When Adam knew he was naked
He had crossed the line
Tried to cover his shame by hiding
Keeping out of sight
But God knew what was occurring
And in His heart was dread
God made skins to clothe poor Adam
And another beast was dead
For the principle of sin was made
That it should come at cost
Adam found the grace of God
Instead of his life lost

A life for a life, an eye for an eye
A pound of flesh for a sin
There's blood on the scales but we never paid
It was Christ who settled our debt

Count up all of your bad deeds
Count them every one
Think of all that Christ has suffered
For the things you've done
Sin came to us through one man
Through one are all condemned
So if one man pays the Reaper
For all, the curse can end
For the ancient rule of sacrifice
Has now been satisfied
Jesus bore our every sin
So we'd be justified
