This is Part II of a two part pancocojams series about the Christian saying "I plead the blood of Jesus" ("I plead the blood").

This post showcases three African American* Gospel videos that include the Christian saying "I plead the blood".

The lyrics for Charles Jenkins' Gospel song "War" are also included in that post. That song includes the words "I plead the blood."

* The choice of these videos does not mean to imply that this saying is only used by African Americans.

LYRICS FOR "WAR"
(written by Charles Jenkins")

I've got joy in my soul
God is in control
I got Satan on my trail
But I'm singing all is well
He's attacking every day
But I'm watching while I pray
No matter the attack I won't turn back

This means war
This means
This means war
This means
This means war
This means
This means war

I've got joy in my soul
God is in control
I got Satan on my trail
But I'm singing all is well
He's attacking every day
But I'm watching while I pray
No matter the attack I won't turn back

This means war
This means
This means war
This means
This means war
This means
This means war

I plead the blood
I plead, I plead the blood
There's power in the blood
I plead, I plead the blood
Healing in the blood
I plead, I plead the blood
Power in the blood
I plead, I plead the blood

I've been in the storm and the rain
But the blood still stays the same
Whatever's going wrong
My war clothes are on
I might be in a daze
But you can't have my praise
No matter the attack I won't turn back

This means war
This means
This means war
This means
This means war
This means
This means war

You can't have my family
You can't have my increase
You can't have my breakthrough
You can't have my
You can't have my
You can't
You can't
You can't
I plead

I plead, I plead the blood
There's power in the blood
I plead, I plead the blood
A prayer of protection
I plead, I plead the blood
A prayer of provision
I plead, I plead the blood

This means
This means war
There's power in your praise
This means war
Prayer changes things
This means war
You can't take this lying down
This means war
Say this means
This means war
This means war

This song is from the [2014] album "Any Given Sunday".

The saying "I plead the blood" is first found in this video at 5:16 as part of Rev. Norful's old school prayer. 

Pancocojams Editor's Note: In response to a comment about the lack of social distancing because of Covid-19 at the event that is shown in this video, Yolanya Howard,a commenter in 2020, wrote "This is from 6years ago!!!!". Therefore, that event occurred in 2014, prior to the Covid-19 pandemic.
