Lyrics
Thirty Pieces of Silver
Ronnie Bee
(Sacred Music - Easter Theme)
If a man, could purchase life, what would it cost to buy?
To know you'd live, forever more, and never ever die
There was a man, who paid the price, of life for you and me
He was God's Son, the price he paid, was Calvary
Thirty pieces of silver, was the price that betrayed
Thirty pieces of silver, was the price of a lowly slave
Thus they valued our Master, when they plotted his fall
Thirty pieces of silver, for the Lord of us all.
Though he knew, that he must die, he suffered all the pain
And there he bore, our guilt and sin, he shouldered all the blame
When he looked down, from on the cross, he said "Father forgive"
I give my life, to ransom them, that they may live
And the wages for our sins, was the price that he paid
As he purchased our pardon, saving us from the darkest grave
How he suffered in agony, when they let his blood fall
While he bore all our sorrow, tasting death for us all
When they laid, him in the tomb, they said that he was dead
All his disciples, in grief and shame, had run away and hid
But come the dawn, of the third morn, the stone was rolled away
Death could not win, he came to life, and lives today.
Thirty pieces of silver, such a small price to bring
Thirty pieces of silver, for the life of our Royal King
Oh how priceless is Jesus, for as we have believed
Thirty pieces of silver, our salvation received
Thirty pieces of silver, such a small price to bring
Thirty pieces of silver, for the life of our Royal King
Oh how priceless is Jesus, for as we have believed
All the riches of heaven, are now ours to receive.
