Once and for All by Pam Thum Lyrics

Genre: pop | Year: 1993

An endless stream of pilgrims
Made their way into Jerusalem
To offer up the goat, the lamb and dove
Atonement for there sin was made
But only for a season
And still their empty hearts still cried out
For a lasting peace and love
Then from Bethlehem He came
Emmanuel was His name
He knew the world would need a sacrifice
And a million lambs could never pay the price

Oh, once and for all
He walked the road to Calvary
Carrying the sins of every man
Upon His shoulders
Once and for all
He conquered death victoriously
Tearing down the separating wall
And the price was paid in full
Once and for all
An endless stream of mercy
Falls like rain from heaven's holy throne
To everyone who calls upon His grace
Though we all were sinners
He loved beyond our weaknesses
And though we were unworthy
He came to suffer in our place
And as His blood fell to the ground
Our hope again was found
No longer are we guilty and oppressed
For He has thrown our sin
As far as east is from the west

Once and for all
He walked the road to Calvary
Carrying the sins of every man
Upon His shoulders
Once and for all
He conquered death victoriously
Tearing down the separating wall
And the price was paid in full
Once and for all

He walked the road to Calvary
Carrying the sins of every man
Upon His shoulders
Once and for all
He conquered death victoriously
Tearing down the separating wall
And the price was paid in full
Once and for all
The price was paid in full
Once and for all
