Jesus Paid It All

Jesus Paid It All

I hear the Savior say, “Thy strength indeed is small. Child of weakness, watch and pray, Find in Me thine all in all.”
Chorus
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 the throne, I stand in Him complete, “Jesus died my soul to save,” My lips shall still repeat.— Elvina M. Hall (1818–1889)
ENDNOTE
* “Leper’s spots” refers to the effects of sin
on a sinner.
