From the recording Why Follow Jesus

Lyrics

(Verse 1)
I was bound by chains, no hope in sight,
Lost in darkness, wanderin’ through the endless night.
But Jesus saw my broken heart, He heard my call,
Stepped down from glory, yes, He paid it all!
(Chorus)
He paid it all, praise His holy name!
Took my sin and sorrow, bore my guilt and shame!
On that rugged cross, He gave His life for me,
Hallelujah, Jesus paid it all, I’m free!
(Verse 2)
The debt was mine, too heavy for this soul to bear,
But Christ, my Savior, showed me mercy beyond compare.
With every drop of blood, He settled Heaven’s claim,
Now I’m redeemed forever by His precious name!
(Chorus)
He paid it all, praise His holy name!
Took my sin and sorrow, bore my guilt and shame!
On that rugged cross, He gave His life for me,
Hallelujah, Jesus paid it all, I’m free!
(Bridge)
Sing it loud, ye ransomed, let the heavens ring!
Tell the world the story of our Savior King!
No price too high, no sacrifice too tall,
Glory to the Lamb, ‘cause He paid it all!
(Chorus)
He paid it all, oh, praise His holy name!
Took my sin and sorrow, bore my guilt and shame!
On that rugged cross, He gave His life for me,
Hallelujah, Jesus paid it all.
(Outro)
Now I’ll live for Jesus, till my race is run,
Shoutin’ hallelujah for what He’s done.
No debt remains, He tore down every wall.
Thank you, Lord, my Jesus paid it all!
