Jesus Paid It All

Words by Elvina M. Hall, 18655 verses

I hear the Saviour say,"Thy strength indeed is small;Child of weakness, watch and pray,Find in Me thine all in all."

Refrain, after each verseJesus paid it all—All to Him I owe;Sin had left a crimson stain;He washed it white as snow.

Lord, now indeed I findThy power, and Thine alone,Can change the leper's spots,And melt the heart of stone.

For nothing good have IWhereby Thy grace to claim—I'll wash my garments whiteIn the blood of Calvary's Lamb.

When from my dying bedMy ransomed soul shall rise,Then "Jesus paid it all!"Shall rend the vaulted skies.

And when before the throneI stand in Him complete,I'll lay my trophies down,All down at Jesus' feet.
