Easter
Travis Greene and Todd Dulaney's song celebrates Jesus' complete payment for sin through His death and resurrection. The lyrics use financial imagery of debt and a receipt signed in blood to illustrate how Christ settled what humanity could not pay. The song moves from the cross to the empty tomb, declaring victory over death and the grave. It emphasizes that sin's stain is washed away and believers are free because of what Jesus accomplished. The repeated refrain 'He paid it all' underscores the theme of substitutionary atonement and the joy of salvation.
So many charges
I was in debt over my head
Couldn't afford it
But Someone paid for it instead
It took a while to recognize
That what I owe did not exist no more
What I could not pay
He handled for me
He took the bill and the receipt is signed in blood
An outstanding balance
That I could not rectify
All out of options
But You settled just in time
I couldn't understand how
What I owe did not exist anymore
What I could not pay
He handled for me
He took the bill and the receipt is signed in blood
He paid it all
All to Jesus I owe
Sin left a stain
He washed it as snow
When I could not pay
He covered it
Hallelujah, to the One who paid it all
He paid it all
All to Jesus I owe
Sin left a stain
He washed it as snow
When I could not pay
He covered it
Hallelujah, to the One who paid it all
Oh, no, no, oh, no, no, oh, no, no
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
We declare it all
Our God who risen, risen from the grave, oh
So we sing
On the cross debt was paid
In the tomb His body laid
Darkness ruled 'til light appeared
He rolled the stone, He silenced fear
Oh death, look at who's laughing now
Oh grave, the Savior's walking out
With wisdom, power, truth and grace
All hail the King of Heaven reigns
He paid it all
All to Jesus I owe
Sin left a stain
He washed it as snow
When I could not pay
He covered it
Hallelujah, to the One who paid it all
On the cross debt was paid
In the tomb His body laid
Darkness ruled 'til light appeared
He rolled the stone, He silenced fear
Oh death, look at who's laughing now
Oh grave, the Savior's walking out
With wisdom, power, truth and grace
All hail the King of Heaven reigns
(He did it for me, did it all)
Hele, hele, hele, hele
Ooh, Mama...
