Another inspiring song with awesome lyrics! I first heard this song from Chris Tomlin. This is the Hillsong United version. Another great band making impact to the young generation for Christ. Enjoy the video and as you watch, I pray that you will encounter God in a very personal way. I only wish that you will be blessed.
“You bought my life with the Blood that You shed on the cross. When You died for the sins of men. And You let out a cry, Crucified now alive in you. These hands are Yours Teach them to serve as You please. And I’ll reach out desperate to see, All the greatness of God, May my soul rest assured in You…”
Pat Robertson’s statement on this video is a very hot trending topic on Twitter. It caught my attention in the light of the devastating Haiti earthquake. Sometimes we have to ask the hard questions who, why, or what is behind these catastrophic tragedies. But surely, as what the Bible says, the devil only comes to steal, kill, and destroy. If the Haitians did had a pact with the devil in the past, they need to turn to God and healing will come into their land. My thoughts and prayers for the Haitian people. May God’s comfort and mercy flow on every families affected by this tragedy.
Transcript:
PAT ROBERTSON: And, you know, Kristi, something happened a long time ago in Haiti, and people might not want to talk about it. They were under the heel of the French. You know, Napoleon III and whatever. And they got together and swore a pact to the devil. They said, “We will serve you if you will get us free from the French.” True story. And so, the devil said, “OK, it’s a deal.”
And they kicked the French out. You know, the Haitians revolted and got themselves free. But ever since, they have been cursed by one thing after the other. Desperately poor. That island of Hispaniola is one island. It’s cut down the middle. On the one side is Haiti; on the other side is the Dominican Republic. Dominican Republic is prosperous, healthy, full of resorts, et cetera. Haiti is in desperate poverty. Same island. They need to have and we need to pray for them a great turning to God. And out of this tragedy, I’m optimistic something good may come. But right now, we’re helping the suffering people, and the suffering is unimaginable.
Therefore, since we have been made right in God’s sight by faith, we have peace with God because of what Jesus Christ our Lord has done for us. Because of our faith, Christ has brought us into this place of undeserved privilege where we now stand, and we confidently and joyfully look forward to sharing God’s glory.
We can rejoice, too, when we run into problems and trials, for we know that they help us develop endurance. And endurance develops strength of character, and character strengthens our confident hope of salvation. And this hope will not lead to disappointment. For we know how dearly God loves us, because he has given us the Holy Spirit to fill our hearts with his love (Romans 5:1-5)

Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus, who, being in the form of God, did not consider it robbery to be equal with God, but made Himself of no reputation, taking the form of a bondservant, and coming in the likeness of men. And being found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself and became obedient to the point of death, even the death of the cross. Therefore God also has highly exalted Him and given Him the name which is above every name, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those in heaven, and of those on earth, and of those under the earth, and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. (Philippians 2:5-11)
Jesus Christ is our Lord and Saviour. He is the Beginning and the End. The author and finisher of our faith. As you watch this video by Kristian Stanfill, let Jesus penetrate the depths of your hearts. May He touch you in a very special way and make that revelation of who He is in your life.
Jesus Paid it All
Kristian Stanfill leading the song Jesus Paid It All at Passion 2006 in Nashville, Tennessee. Listen to this song on Passion’s Everything Glorious album or on Kristian Stanfill’s album Jesus Paid It All (Everything Glorious Album Version)
JESUS PAID IT ALL
I hear the Savior say Thy strength indeed is small Child of weakness watch and pray Find in me thine all in all
Jesus paid it all All to Him I owe Sin had left a crimson stain He washed it white as snow
Lord now indeed I find Thy power and thine alone Can change the lepers spots And melt the heart of stone
Jesus paid it all All to Him I owe Sin had left a crimson stain He washed it white as snow
And when before the throne I stand in Him complete Jesus died my soul to save My lips shall still repeat
Jesus paid it all All to Him I owe Sin had left a crimson stain He washed it white as snow
Sin had left a crimson stain He washed it white as snow
Oh praise the One who paid my debt and raised this life up from the dead (x6)
Jesus paid it all All to him I owe Sin had left a crimson stain He washed it white as snow
