Jesus' Blood Never Failed Me Yet

"We originally heard this song on a Gavin Bryars recording. It was a 72 minute loop of a homeless man singing this simple chorus over and over. The contrast of one so lowly expressing such certain and simple faith was and continues to be nothing short of astounding. The power of Gavin's recording is a testimony to one of this world's most profound and sacred mysteries: though they suffer... they have joy. Through our recent work with the Blood: Water Mission we have been privileged to witness afresh this holy mystery. We dedicated this song and its proceeds to our brothers and sisters in Africa who, though they suffer, overwhelm us with their life and their Joy."

Jesus' blood never failed me yet
Never failed me yet
And that's one thing I know
That he loves me so.
