Monday's Message: Jesus Paid it All


Jesus Paid It All
 
       This hymn was written by Mrs. Hall during her pastor’s lengthy prayer, while she sat in the choir loft! The words were originally scribbled on the flyleaf of a hymnal.
       She bravely handed the words to her pastor. The wise pastor, instead of scolding her, put it to music, using another member’s music also given to him.
       The pastor had noticed that the melody and the words fitted perfectly.

Jesus Paid it All

      
(1) 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.
      
(2) For nothing good have I
Whereby Thy grace to claim-
I will wash my garment white
In the blood of Calvary's Lamb.
      
(3) And when before the throne
I stand in Him complete,
"Jesus died my soul to save,"
My lips shall still repeat.
