Lyrics

Verse 1

Gone is all my debt of sin,

A great change is bro't within,

And to live I now begin,

Risen from the fall;

Yet the debt I did not pay,

Someone died for me one day,

Sweeping all the debt away,

Jesus paid it all.

Verse 2

O I hope to please Him now,

Light of joy is on my brow,

As at His dear feet I bow,

Safe within His love,

Making His the debt I owed,

Freedom true He has bestowed;

So I'm singing on the road

To my home above.

Verse 3

Sinner, not for me alone Did the Son of God atone;

Your debt, too,

He made His own,

On the cruel tree.

Come to Him with all your sin;

Be as white as snow within;

Full salvation you may win

And rejoice with me.

Chorus

Jesus died and paid it

On the cross of Calvary,

And my heart was melted

At His dying call,

O His heart was broken

On the tree for you and me,

And the debt is canceled,

Jesus paid it all.

Scriptural Foundations

Preference: NASB 2020
  • 12Therefore, I will allot Him a portion with the great,

    And He will divide the plunder with the strong,

    Because He poured out His life unto death,

    And was counted with wrongdoers;

    Yet He Himself bore the sin of many,

    And interceded for the wrongdoers.
