Jesus Paid it All

Over the past 6 months or so I have played this song almost daily on my iPod. The words are so incredibly powerful and have been a daily reminder of Who I live for daily. I have been especially drawn to the passion in which Kristian Stanfill leads this song. If you haven't already watched the YouTube video please take a minute to. Here are the words to this powerful hymn:

Verse 1
I hear the Savior say,
"Thy strength indeed is small.
Child of weakness, watch and pray,
Find in Me thine all in all."

Chorus
’Cause Jesus paid it all,
All to Him I owe.
Sin had left a crimson stain,
He washed it white as snow.

Verse 2
Lord, now indeed I find
Thy pow'r and Thine alone,
Can change the leper’s spots,
And melt the heart of stone.

Verse 3
And when before the throne
I stand in Him complete,
Jesus died my soul to save
my lips shall still repeat.

Bridge
Oh, praise the One who paid my debt,
And raised this life up from the dead.


I would love to hear what songs or hymns that move you. It's been interesting to look back and how I can define certain seasons in my walk with Christ with a different worship song that was stirring in my heart through that season. What songs move you?
