So High The Price




If any of you listen to the Steve Pettit Evangelistic Team, then you have most likely heard this song on one of their newest CD's, So High The Price.  You can listen to parts of the different songs from the CD HERE .  I love most of the Steve Pettit Music and this is one of my favorite CD's.  The first song on the disc is, "So High the Price".   A song that even without the music speaks for itself.


Here are the lyrics.
So High The Price
By
Deborah Bailey & Marty Funderburck

Lord of glory, reigning in His majesty,
Ruling long before the worlds were formed
Yet when darkness claimed His own
He stepped form heaven's throne
To bear a cross and wear a crown of thorns

(Chorus)
So high the price He paid, the nails, the cross, the grave
Such pardon He bestowed, such grace He showed
No greater sacrifice, He gave His very life
So deep the love, so high the price

Son of God so willingly He took our place
Clothed in robes frail humanity
Fragile flesh and blood, priceless crimson flood
Offered up for sin at Calvary

So high the price He paid, the nails, the cross, the grave
Such pardon He bestowed, such grace He showed
No greater sacrifice, He gave His very life
So deep the love, so high the price

Buried like a beggar in a borrowed tomb
Everything for nothing so it seemed
But death could never stand, agains the nail-scarred hands
And power of heaven's resurrected King

So high the price He paid, the nails, the cross, the grave 
Such pardon He bestowed, such grace He showed
No greater sacrifice, He gave His very life
So deep the love, so high the price
