Debt PaymentHebrews 10:14 - 17 He has perfected forever by one offering, Those who are holy with a soul purifying; With the Holy Spirit looking as a witness, Forgetting the iniquities be surely bless; God paid our fine for love to set us free, The body of Jesus Christ nailed to a tree; Twas a day of atonement being on the cross, As God's way for reconciliation with a loss; To a holy place did Jesus for our salvation, Change all believers become a new creation; Jesus was really a sin offering sacrificed, A payment for all our sins was high priced; Blood on the cross as a sacrificial altar, In a time when an entire nation did falter; Perhaps Jesus Christ was really a scapegoat, On a heavy burden of sin Israel had to tote; Of a very sinful nation that had to confess, And then to banish them into the wilderness; God wanted to make amends and to forgive, So we can rest our souls and able to live.
