Ivan Parker delivered a wonderful performance of the the classic hymn “Jesus Paid It All.” This song is a traditional American hymn about the penal substitutionary atonement for sin by the death of Jesus. The song references many Bible verses, including Romans 5 (“Jesus’ sacrifice gives life”) and Isaiah 1:18 (“a crimson flow”). The song lyrics were written in 1865 by Elvina M. Hall, a 47-year-old widowed congregant. Be blessed!

Jesus Paid It All Lyrics

Song by Ivan Parker

I hear the Savior say,
Thy strength indeed is small;
Child of weakness, watch and pray,
Find in Me thine all in all.

Jesus paid it all,
All to Him I owe;
Sin had left a crimson stain,
He washed it white as snow.

Lord, now indeed I find
Thy power and Thine alone,
Can change the leper’s spots
And melt the heart of stone.

Jesus paid it all,
All to Him I owe;
Sin had left a crimson stain,
He washed it white as snow.

And when before the throne
I stand in Him complete,
Jesus died my soul to save,
My lips shall still repeat

Jesus paid it all,
All to Him I owe;
Sin had left a crimson stain,
He washed it white as snow
Sin had left a crimson stain,
He washed it white as snow

O Praise the one who paid my debt
And raised this life up from the dead
O Praise the one who paid my debt
And raised this life up from the dead
O Praise the one who paid my debt
And raised this life up from the dead
O Praise the one who paid my debt
And raised this life up from the dead
O Praise the one who paid my debt
And raised this life up from the dead

Jesus paid it all,
All to Him I owe;
Sin had left a crimson stain,
He washed it white as snow
Sin had left a crimson stain,
He washed it white as snow
He washed it white as snow

Ivan Parker – Thank You Lyrics

Artist: Ivan Parker

Album: How Great Thou Art

I dreamed I went to heaven,
and you were there with me.
We walked upon the streets of gold,
beside the crystal sea.
We heard the angels singing,
as someone called your name.
We turned and saw this young man,
he was smiling as he came.

(And he said)
Friend you may not know me now.
(Then he said)
But wait,
you used to teach my Sunday school,
when I was only eight.
Every week you would say a prayer,
before the class would start.
And one day when you said that prayer,
I asked Jesus in my heart.

Thank You for giving to the Lord,
I am a life that was changed.
Thank You for giving to the Lord,
I am so glad you gave.

Then another man stood before you.
(He said)
Remember the time,
a missionary came to your church.
His pictures made you cry,
you didnt have much money but you gave it anyway.
Jesus took the gift you gave,
thats why Im here today.

Thank You for giving to the Lord,
I am a life that was changed.
Thank You for giving to the Lord,
I am so glad you gave.

One by one they came,
for as the eye could see.
Each life somehow touched,
by your generosity.
Little things that you had done,
sacrifices made.
Unnoticed here on earth,
in heaven now proclaimed.

(Listen now) I know up in heaven,
youre not suppose to cry.
But I am almost sure,
I saw tears in your eyes.
When Jesus took your hand,
and you stood before the Lord.
(He said) My child look around you,
for great is your reward.

Thank You for giving to the Lord,
I am a life that was changed.
Thank You for giving to the Lord,
I am so glad you gave.
Thank You for giving to the Lord,
I am a life that was changed.
Thank You for giving to the Lord,
I am so glad you gave.

He Must Had Had a Mountain On His Mind

Ivan Parker

He said let’s go up the mountain. I’ve got a few things I would like to say
So they followed close behind Him and stayed there ’til the sunset of the day
His words were strong and gentle like the aspens as they whisper in the wind
and His promises were welcome as the whippoorwill who finds her nest again

Oh and He taught there on the mountain and the boulders heard His words
They would have shouted praise Him if the crowd had not been first

He said blessed are the peaceful. They are the sons of God
Blessed are the righteous for with Him there is a bond
Blessed are the poor and meek. Blessed are the ones who seek to find
And as He walked into the valley He must have had a mountain on His mind

He gave them all instructions, lessons that would help them on the ride
He talked of all His passions and hoped that they’d remember when he died
He said learn to love your brother. He even said to love your enemy
He said walk the second mile, pray forgive us Lord and set us free

Then He left them on the hillside and He went to Calvary
He thought about a mountain where He’d fed His precious sheep

He said blessed are the peaceful. They are the sons of God
Blessed are the righteous for with Him there is a bond
Blessed are the poor and meek. Blessed are the ones who seek to find
And as He stepped into Heaven He must have had a mountain on His mind

Midnight Cry Lyrics

VERSE 1:
I HEAR THE SOUND

OF A MIGHTY RUSHING WIND

AND IT’S CLOSER NOW

THAN IT’S EVER BEEN

I CAN ALMOST HEAR THE TRUMPET

AND GRABRIEL SOUND THE CHORD

AT THE MIDNIGHT CRY WE’LL BE GOING HOME.

CHORUS:
WHEN JESUS STEPS OUT

ON A CLOUD TO CALL HIS CHILDREN

THE DEAD IN CHRIST SHALL RISE

TO MEET HIM IN THE AIR

AND THEN THOSE THAT REMAIN

SHALL BE QUICKLY CHANGED

AT THE MIDNIGHT CRY

WHEN JESUS COMES AGAIN.

VERSE 2:
I LOOK AROUND ME

I SEE PROPHECIES FULL FILLING

AND SIGNS OF THE TIMES

THEY’RE APPEARING EVERYWHERE

I CAN ALMOST HEAR THE FATHER

AS HE SAYS

“SON GO GET YOUR CHILDREN.”

AT THE MIDNIGHT CRY

THE BRIDE OF CHRIST WILL RISE.

TAG :

AND THEN THOSE THAT REMAIN

WILL BE QUICKLY CHANGED

AT THE MIDNIGHT CRY

WHEN JESUS COMES AGAIN

AT THE MIDNIGHT CRY

WHEN JESUS COMES AGAIN

WHEN JESUS COMES AGAIN.
