The Price Jesus Paid tells the story of Christ’s sacrifice, beginning at the cross and unfolding through His resurrection, ascension, and the birth of the Church. It is a song rooted in Scripture and centered on the great cost of redemption paid by Jesus Christ, the Son of God. Jesus left His heavenly glory and took upon Himself the likeness of sinful flesh, yet lived a life without sin (Romans 8:3; Hebrews 4:15). At Golgotha, He was crucified, bearing the sins, sorrow, and judgment of the world so that all who believe in Him might receive forgiveness and eternal life (Isaiah 53:5; John 3:16). As He died, darkness covered the land, the earth shook, and the veil of the Temple was torn from top to bottom, signifying that the barrier between God and man had been removed by His sacrifice (Matthew 27:45, 51). His body was laid in a borrowed tomb, sealed by a stone and guarded by men, but death could not hold Him. On the third day, Jesus rose from the grave, victorious over sin and death (Matthew 28:5-6). He appeared to His followers, speaking peace to fearful hearts and opening their understanding to the Scriptures, confirming that God’s plan of redemption had been fulfilled (Luke 24:36, 45). For forty days after His resurrection, Jesus continued to teach His disciples about the Kingdom of God (Acts 1:3). He then ascended into heaven, promising that the Holy Spirit would come with power to equip them for the work ahead (Acts 1:8-9). Ten days later, on the Day of Pentecost, that promise was fulfilled. The Holy Spirit was poured out, the Church was born, and believers were empowered to carry the Gospel of Jesus Christ to the world (Acts 2:1-4; Mark 16:15-20). This song declares that the cross was not the end, but the beginning. The price Jesus paid purchased forgiveness, new life, and a living Church, filled with His Spirit and called to proclaim His saving grace to every generation.
