The February song has a name now which is “It Was Paid”. The idea of writing and mixing a song each month came from Graham Cochrane at Recording Revolution. The inspiration for this song came in part from some notes I wrote down some years back in an old notebook. The song ended up with the words below.
It Was Paid
Written by William Mitchell – Feb. 10, 2017
What would be, the cost for salvation
What would be, the cost to free my soul
Open your heart and mind to what I say
Salvation price has already been paid
It was paid by the perfect one
Paid by his love and suffering for us
God did not appoint us to suffer and die
Salvation’s price was paid by the son of God
Come and find, the son of man
Come and find, the plan he has for you
For God did not create you to live in pain
Salvation price has already been paid
It was paid by the perfect one
Paid by his love and suffering for us
God did not appoint us to suffer and die
Salvation’s price was paid by the son of God
The gifts of man, only last for a while
The gifts of man, will lead you astray
The price for sin you can never pay
Yet your bill clear, it has already been paid
It was paid by the perfect one
Paid by his love and suffering for us
God did not appoint us to suffer and die
Salvation’s price was paid by the son of God
So open your heart to the perfect one
The one who loved and suffered for us
God appointed him to suffer and die
Salvation’s price was paid by Jesus Christ
It was paid by the perfect one
Paid by his love and suffering for us
God did not appoint us to suffer and die
Salvation’s price was paid by the son of God
