''I have paid the price."

While You got murdered you said: ββFather forgive them, they know not what they do,β'
Because when my King was hanging on that cross, He was thinking of me and you.
On the cross You were the one who said: ββ I am not dying because of me, but because of you.β'
Not just for the sins I have done, but for the ones I will do.
Β
You said whoever tries to keep their life will lose it, and whoever loses their life will preserve it,
Jesus, I want to pick up my cross daily and surrender instead of commit.
Because You took the crown of thorns in the blood dripping down Your face,
You took away what I deserve, and I guess that is what we call grace.
Β
When my time here is over and I meet you face to face,
Let me be in the place I long for, which is in your embrace.
Let it be a coming home and sitting at the table,
With the one I love the most, and makes me strong where Iβm unable.
Β
Living in freedom is knowing how to praise in pain,
Therefore in every situation, I want to glorify Your name.
(Jesus) You lifted up my face so I can see the grace in Your eyes,
You came to me and told me: ββI have paid the price.ββ
Β
A bible full of stories, telling me how great You are and what You have done,
Coming to this earth to die and suffer, but then You are the one who won.
You are the one who conquered the grave and rose again,
Therefore I can live in freedom and come to You no matter when.
Β
It is Your word that stood and will stand through the ages,
And our lives a testimony that theyβre living pages.
So let me walk as Jesus walked and pray as Jesus prayed,
Cause really, giving up my life, isnβt even a fair trade.
Β
I want my life to be as Paul said: ββto live is Christ and to die is gain,ββ
So that He lives through me and my life wont be in vain.
Letβs be welcomed a hero, once we enter heaven,
And till that time plunder hell and live on the earth as leaven.
ββWhen you got murderedββ
