One Drop
Song-Copyrighted by Beverly Roller Elrod

I didn’t have to be there
When they crucified my savior.
I’d heard about how
He died upon that tree.
He shed his blood
So man could be forgiven.
And I know that he left
One drop up there for me.

I didn’t ask it,
But he gave it,
One drop in reserve
And it’s mine.
There’s one for you.
Claim it, if you want to.
One drop in reserve
All this time.

It’s been on that tree
Down through the ages.
I only need to accept
That Jesus died for me.
When he shed his blood
The Holy curtain was torn,
Which opened up my way to God
Years ago, on Calvary.

I didn’t ask it,
But he gave it,
One drop in reserve
And it’s mine.
There’s one for you.
Claim it, if you want to.
One drop in reserve
All this time.
