For He sends me many blessings ev’ry day;
Tho’ with joy to His dear altar now my all I bring,
Still I owe Him more than I can ever pay.
Refrain:
Yes, I owe Him more than I can ever pay,
Yet He sends me many blessing ev’ry day;
He’s the dearest friend of all, for He answers when I call,
Yes, I owe Him more than I can ever pay.
2 In the hour of pain and trouble He is always nigh,
And amid the storm His words my fears allay;
When the enemy approaches I on Him rely,
O, I owe Him more than I can ever pay. [Refrain]
3 He His all has freely given just to win my love,
And has promised to be with me all the way;
I’m preparing now to praise Him in the world above,
O, I owe Him more than I can ever pay. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [There's a precious Friend called Jesus]
More Than I Can Pay
