Appears in 15 hymnals Refrain First Line: Hear the voice of Jesus say Scripture: Matthew 18:27 First Line: Nothing to pay! ah, nothing to pay Lyrics: 1 Nothing to pay! ah, nothing to pay!
Never a word of excuse to say;
Year after year thou hast filled the score,
Owing the Lord still more and more.
Refrain:
Hear the voice of Jesus say:
Verily thou hast nothing to pay;
Ruined, lost art thou, and yet
I forgave thee all that debt.
2 Nothing to pay! the debt is so great!
What will you do with the awful weight?
How shall the way of escape be made?
Nothing to pay, what must be paid? [Refrain]
3 Nothing to pay! yes, nothing to pay!
Jesus has cleared all the debt away,
Blotted it out with his bleeding hand;
Free and forgiv’n, and loved you stand. [Refrain] Used With Tune: [Nothing to pay! ah, nothing to pay]
