Price Paid (Mirrored Refrain)

I will live each day for Jesus
This is the choice that I have made,
Because He died to set me free
Death was the great price that He paid.

Could have called Legions of Angels
Instead of that He thought of me,
Death was the great price that He paid
Because He died to set me free.

In agony took the whipping
For my sickness, this was the trade
Because He died to set me free
Death was the great price that He paid.

No one else would die to save me
Go down to hell and take the key,
Death was the great price that He paid
Because He died to set me free
