~ 1 PETER 1:23 ~ "having been born again, not of corruptible seed but incorruptible, through the word of God which lives and abides forever,"
"Before I came to know Jesus Christ as my Lord and Personal Savior, I used to sincerely believe that my Catholic religion (or any religion for that matter) was my ticket to heaven, but I was sincerely wrong. I couldn't thank God enough for sending His Son, the Lord Jesus Christ, who bought me for a price not of incorruptible things, but through His precious shed blood on the cross, He redeemed me for eternity." - erlinda mejia-olson
SO HIGH THE PRICE
By: Steve Pettit Evangelistic Team, 2009
Lord of glory, reigning in His majesty,
Ruling long before the worlds were formed
Yet when darkness claimed His own
He stepped from heaven's throne
To bear a cross and wear a crown of thorns
(Chorus)
(Chorus)
So high the price He paid, the nails, the cross, the grave
Such pardon He bestowed, such grace He showed
No greater sacrifice, He gave His very life
So deep the love, so high the price
Son of God so willingly He took our place
Son of God so willingly He took our place
Clothed in robes of frail humanity
Fragile flesh and blood, priceless crimson flood
Offered up for sin at Calvary
So high the price He paid, the nails, the cross, the grave
So high the price He paid, the nails, the cross, the grave
Such pardon He bestowed, such grace He showed
No greater sacrifice, He gave His very life
So deep the love, so high the price
Buried like a beggar in a borrowed tomb
Buried like a beggar in a borrowed tomb
Everything for nothing so it seemed
But death could never stand, against the nail-scarred hands
And power of heaven's resurrected King
So high the price He paid, the nails, the cross, the grave
So high the price He paid, the nails, the cross, the grave
Such pardon He bestowed, such grace He showed
No greater sacrifice, He gave His very life
So deep the love, so high the price.
