Once For All
VERSE 1
Oh sin
The vilest root that claims the hearts of men
No sacrifice, no offering makes amends
For all we’ve done, for all we are within
VERSE 2
And death
That curse of sin awaits our final breath
The penalty that rests upon each head
But through the work of Christ, we’re not condemned
CHORUS
Once for all, you have overcome the grave
Sin no longer rules, and death no longer reigns
It’s swallowed up in victory, its sting has now been tamed
By the cross, our debt is washed away
Once for all, we’ve overcome the grave
VERSE 3
Through Christ
The righteous law’s requirement satisfied
Once for all, for he was crucified
Shed on the cross, his blood now testifies
BRIDGE
Sin’s curse removed! Oh church rejoice!
With cheerful voices raised!
Lift high propitiation’s song!
Atonement has been made!
