My Debt's Been Paid by Daniel Gladu

This is something that the Lord had laid on my heart to write on tonight.  The first verse is a little part of my testimony about what the Lord truly had done in my life.  I said the verse John 15:5 because the last part of it says, "...for without me, ye can do nothing."  This is the truth.  We can't do anything without the Lord in our life.  Blessed be to God, my debt has been paid!...


My Debt's Been Paid

One night I was reading beside my bed
And all I could think of was John 15:5 in my head
That night I kneeled down and prayed,
"Thank you Lord, my debt's been paid"

When I think of the words "It is Finished" I know
The story is true, God loves me so
Oh, to think of the crimes that I had made
All I can say is, "Thank you, Jesus, my debt's been paid"

Oh the souls that mock and scoff
They don't realize what a great cost
And they sit around thinking it is a game to play
Oh I wish they would realize the price Jesus did pay

When I think of the words "It is Finished" I know
The story is true, God loves me so
Oh, to think of the crimes that I had made
All I can say is, "Thank you, Jesus, my debt's been paid"

The devil comes so many times
Reminding me of how great my crimes
But then I remember what Jesus did say,
"You believed on me, the debt's been paid"

When I think of the words "It is Finished" I know
The story is true, God loves me so
Oh, to think of the crimes that I had made
All I can say is, "Thank you, Jesus, my debt's been paid"

Many religions will give another way
But all it does is lead astray
We must remember what Jesus said,
"The only way to the Father is through the price I paid"

When I think of the words "It is Finished" I know
The story is true, God loves me so
Oh, to think of the crimes that I had made
All I can say is, "Thank you, Jesus, my debt's been paid"

So if you want to experience this joy
Understand that on the cross sin was destroyed
And realize that Jesus is the only way
For the penalty to be broken, and the price be paid

When I think of the words "It is Finished" I know
The story is true, God loves me so
Oh, to think of the crimes that I had made
All I can say is, "Thank you, Jesus, my debt's been paid"

All I can say is, "Thank you, Jesus, my debt's been paid"
