Jesus Paid the Debt

I was a wanderer

Far away from God

I had sorrow in my bosom

And my way

Was mighty hard

Then I heard

That gospel story

How He came down from

His throne in glory

He paid the debt

I know

He paid the debt

For you and me

He paid the debt

Jesus paid the debt

He paid the debt

He paid the debt

I know He paid the debt

He paid the

The debt for you and me

You know

He's stretched out on a tree

And died on rugged Calvary

That's why I know

Jesus paid the debt

For you and me

He paid the debt

Paid the debt

Paid the debt

Oh yeah

Oh it was

Jesus paid the debt

A long time ago

You know they stretched

Him on a tree

On rugged Calvary

Jesus paid the debt

For you and me

Jesus paid the debt

Jesus paid the debt

It was Jesus

He died way out on Cavalry

You know they stretched Him

On a tree on rugged Calvary

You know that Jesus who paid

Yes who paid the debt

For you and me
