17050. Bought with a Price

1. The Sav­ior bought you with a price,
So great that none can un­der­stand
How deep His love for lost man­kind,
How just and right­eous His de­mand.

Refrain

He bought you with His pre­cious blood,
And now He calls you through His Word;
The blood-stained path of love He trod—
Accept Him while His voice is heard.

2. The Sav­ior bought you with a price,
No oth­er one could set you free;
His work of grace will ev­er stand
Throughout a long eter­ni­ty.

Refrain

3. The Sav­ior bought you with a price,
And yet, re­fus­ing Him, you live;
His claim is just, and of­fers peace
To all who will their whole life give.

Refrain

4. Oh, doub­ting soul, why tar­ry still?
The sha­dows length­en into night;
’Tis true, that who­so­ev­er will
May leave the dark­ness for the light.

Refrain
