70. Christ Paid a Debt

For years my life was lost in sin, no friends without no joy within, I knew of nothing but misery and pain. but then I heard about a man named Jesus dying for my sin, he had the answer to take my sin away.

Christ paid a debt he did not owe, I owed a debt I could not pay, I needed someone to wash my sins away, And now I'm singing this new song, Amazing grace, for Jesus paid the debt that I could never pay.

He paid my debt at Calvary, he cleansed my soul and set me free, I'm glad that Jesus did all my sins erase. Who is a God like unto thee, forgiving all iniquity? Christ Jesus paid the debt that I could never pay.

Christ paid a debt he did not owe, I owed a debt I could not pay, I needed someone to wash my sins away, And now I'm singing this new song, Amazing grace, for Jesus paid the debt that I could never pay.

One day he's coming back for me, I'll live with him eternally, Won't it be glory to see him on that day!  Those pearly gates I now can see, those streets of gold awaiting me, for Jesus paid the debt that I could never pay.

Christ paid a debt he did not owe, I owed a debt I could not pay, I needed someone to wash my sins away, And now I'm singing this new song, Amazing grace, for Jesus paid the debt that I could never pay.
