By His Wounds

I heard a new song on the radio today, and it pretty much instantly became one of my favorites. If you had told me several years ago that Steven Curtis Chapman and Backstreet Boy Brian Littrell would collaborate on a song, I would have called you crazy. But this song features both of them, in addition to Third Day's Mac Powell and Casting Crowns' Mark Hall. The song is called "By His Wounds" and is taken from Isaiah 53:5. It appears on a CD called "Glory Revealed: The Word of God in Worship." Find out more about this CD here. Without further ado, here are the lyrics:

He was pierced for our transgressions
He was crushed for our sins
The punishment that brought us peace was upon Him
And by His wounds, by His wounds we are healed

He was pierced for our transgressions
He was crushed for our sins
The punishment that brought us peace was upon Him
And by His wounds, by His wounds we are healed

We are healed by Your sacrifice
And the life that You gave
We are healed for You paid the price
By Your grace we are saved
We are saved

He was pierced for our transgressions
And crushed for our sins
The punishment that brought us peace was upon Him
And by His wounds, by His wounds we are healed

We are healed by Your sacrifice
And the life that You gave
We are healed for You paid the price
By Your grace we are saved
We are saved

He was pierced for our transgressions
He was crushed for our sins
The punishment that brought us peace was upon Him
And by His wounds, by His wounds we are healed
By His wounds, by His wounds

What can wash away my sin?
Nothing but the blood of Jesus
