Christ Paid for Our Freedom – v2

Our Savior paid the price,
the Messiah, the Christ
already, long ago, before time,
the cost of our freedom
on the altar of the cross.

Only to believe, to accept Him
to fall into the waters
to die to our past, our sin,
to walk in His freedom
new life to begin.

Rising with Christ,
from the waters, from death
we are to humbly walk this land,
offering hope to the earth
God’s love for us all.

Calling to each beating heart
to listen to Spirit’s calling
that we are free indeed,
only to believe, to accept,
the Savior’s call to us.
