Paid In
Full


Two thousand years ago, on a hill far away, His blood was spilled for our sins to pay.

He struggled to breathe as His life began to fade, He knew it was complete, the sin debt had been paid.

He looked to the Heavens, He spoke unto our Lord, "Tetelistai" it is finished, was His final word.

When you look to the Cross now you will see, The Lamb of God, standing in victory.

He opens His arms, He invites you in, He gives you this gift... He paid for your sins.


                            Michael A. Boaze

MichaelB~
Such beauty in the telling.
Such love in the giving.
Such faith in us.
Such blessing in our lives.
Thank you for this poignant reminder
with the Easter dawn approaching.
