Letra de
Jesus Paid It All

A música Jesus Paid It All foi escrita por Elvina M. Hall e musicada por John T. Grape. A letra foi supostamente escrita em 1865, enquanto Elvina estava sentada na congregação da Igreja Metodista de Monument Street em Baltimore. Durante um momento de devaneio, ela começou a contemplar sobre a totalidade do sacrifício de Cristo, escrevendo a letra no verso de um panfleto de seguros. Mais tarde, a música composta por Grape foi unida às palavras de ... Hall, e a música foi apresentada pela primeira vez pelo coral da igreja. Ver mais [+]

I hear the Saviour 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 lepers spots
And melt the heart of stone

Jesus paid it all.
All to Him I owe.
Sin had left a crimson stain,
He washed it white as snow.

And when before the throne
I stand in him complete
Jesus died my soul to save
My lips shall still repeat

Jesus paid it all.
All to Him I owe.
Sin had left a crimson stain,
He washed it white as snow.

Oh praise the one who paid my debt
And raised this life up from the dead. (x6)

Jesus paid it all.
All to Him I owe.
Sin had left a crimson stain,
He washed it white as snow.
He washed it white as snow.
He washed it white as snow.
