  1. 1Gone is all my debt of sin,A great change is bro’t within,And to live I now begin,Risen from the fall;Yet the debt I did not pay,Someone died for me one day,Sweeping all the debt a way,Jesus paid it all.Jesus died and paid it(Jesus died and paid it all, yes,)On the cross of Calvary,(On the cross of Calvary,)And my heart was melted(O And my stony heart was melted)At His dying call;(At His dying, dying call,)
  2. 2O His heart was broken(O His heart in shame was broken)On the tree for you and me,(On the tree for you and me, yes,)And the debt is cancelled,(And the debt, the debt is cancelled,)Jesus paid it all.(Jesus paid it, paid it all.)Jesus died and paid it(Jesus died and paid it all, yes,)On the cross of Calvary,(On the cross of Calvary,)And my heart was melted(O And my stony heart was melted)At His dying call;(At His dying, dying call,)
  3. 3O I hope to please Him now,Light of joy is on my brow,As at His dear feet I bow,Safe with in His love,Making His the debt I owed,Freedom true He has be stowed;So I’m singing on the roadTo my home above,Jesus died and paid it(Jesus died and paid it all, yes,)On the cross of Calvary,(On the cross of Calvary,)And my heart was melted(O And my stony heart was melted)At His dying call;(At His dying, dying call,)
  4. 4Sinner, not for me aloneDid the Son of God atone;Your debt, too, He made His own,On the cruel tree.Come to Him with all your sin;Be as white as snow within;Full salvation you may winAnd rejoice with me.Jesus died and paid it(Jesus died and paid it all, yes,)On the cross of Calvary,(On the cross of Calvary,)And my heart was melted(O And my stony heart was melted)At His dying call;(At His dying, dying call,)
