The Ransom Was Paid

He was a qualified redeemer
   to pay the ransom price.
The price of redemption has always been
   the shed blood of an innocent sacrifice.
The redemption that He made available
   is a Love Gift with no strings attatched.
Take the pardon He graciously offers.
   That's all that Jesus has asked.
There are no hidden gimmicks,
   and there is no fine print.
They're ours, these things He offers
   if we put our trust in Him.
Without Him there is no salvation.
   The debt for our sin is unpaid,
But God will forgive and accept everyone
   Who beleive in His Sons Mighty name.
