New Song

God Paid the Cost Himself in Christ

By Zeres Vitto

Verse 1 – Genesis

In Eden’s dawn when trust was torn,

A promise whispered through the fall,

The Seed would come, the cost be borne,

God would not abandon all.

On Moriah’s hill a father climbed,

Wood on the back of the promised son,

The knife was raised, the heart was tried,

But Heaven said, “It is not done.”

Pre-Chorus

A ram appeared where death had stood,

Blood in the thorns, mercy understood,

A shadow cast across all time,

Of love that pays what law requires.

Chorus

God paid the cost Himself in Christ,

His Son stepped down, the Lamb was slain.

What justice asked, love sacrificed,

Grace was written in His pain.

From altar stone to Calva ...
