It's One of Those Days I Need This Reminder


ALL YOU'LL EVER NEED
by Andrew Peterson




The blood of Jesus, it is like the widow's oil:
It's enough to pay the price to set you free.
It can fill up every jar and every heart that ever beat.
When it's all you have it's all you'll ever need.
When it's all you have it's all you'll ever need.



The blood of Jesus, it is like the leper's river
Running humble with a power you cannot see.
Seven times go under, let the water wash you clean.
Only go down to the Jordan and believe.
Only go down in the Jordan and believe.



And I need it, I need it.
The closer that I grow,
The more I come to know how much I need it.



The blood of Jesus it is like Elijah's fire,
Falling on the alter of your faith.
All the wisdom of the world could never conjure up a spark,
But no power of Hell could ever quench this flame.
No power of Hell could ever touch this flame.



And I need it, I need it.
The closer that I grow,
The more I come to know how much I need it.



And I need it, I need it.
The closer that I grow, 
The more I come to know how much I need the blood of Jesus.



The blood of Jesus, it is like the widow's oil:
When it's all you have it's all you'll ever need.
It is all you'll ever need.
