[Verse 1] There was a sentence over me A debt I couldn't outrun Every road I took to fix it Still came back to what I'd done Then mercy took the judgment Love stood where I belonged The penalty was paid in full At the cross where death was wronged [Pre-Chorus] Paid Not postponed Paid Not ignored [Chorus] Paid The penalty is paid Broken The power is breaking every day Gone One day even sin itself Won't have a place to stay Paid Broken Gone That's what Jesus came to change [Verse 2] I still feel the pull sometimes Still hear the old commands Still find old chains reaching For the wrists they used to have But sin is not my master Even when the battle's long The power that once owned me Is being broken all along [Chorus] Paid The penalty is paid Broken The power is breaking every day Gone One day even sin itself Won't have a place to stay Paid Broken Gone That's what Jesus came to change [Verse 3] Sanctification isn't magic It isn't one clean night It's a thousand small surrenders Learning how to choose the light The Spirit keeps on teaching What freedom looks like now What used to drag me anywhere Has to fight to move me now [Bridge] Justified The sentence gone Sanctified The grip losing hold Glorified When I finally wake Where sin can't even follow No temptation No accusation No shadow left to fight Not just forgiven Finally finished Standing whole in perfect light [Verse 4] There is coming a morning When the war will disappear No more wrestling with desire No more shame and no more fear Not merely sin forgiven Not merely strength to carry on The presence of the enemy And every trace of sin Gone [Final Chorus] Paid The penalty is paid Broken The power is breaking every day Gone One day even sin itself Won't have a place to stay Paid Broken Gone That's what Jesus came to change Paid At Calvary Broken While He's changing me Gone When I finally see What I was always meant to be [Outro] Penalty Paid Power Breaking Presence Gone Paid Broken Gone
