Jesus Paid it All - a great old song.
The song, Jesus Paid it All (lyrics by Elvina Hall, music by John T. Grape), originally written in 1865, is a favorite of mine. Many song come and go, but few remain as great songs. This is one that will be around for a long time yet and if you happen to be at my funeral, you'll likely be singing it. Enjoy...
I hear the Savior say
Thy strength indeed is small
Child of weakness, watch and pray
Find in me thine all in all
Jesus paid it all
All to Him I owe
Sin had left a crimson stain
He washed it white as snow
Lord, now indeed I find
Thy power and Thine alone
Can change the leper's spots
And melt the heart of stone
For nothing good have I
Whereby Thy grace to claim
I'll wash my garments white
In the blood of Calvary's Lamb
And when before thy throne
I stand in Him complete
Jesus died my soul to save
My lips shall still repeat
