Story Behind The Song
Falling four floors and nearly dying in the midst of rock and roll excess I discovered God had a plan for me and saved my life and my soul! The price Jesus paid was extraordinary and this song is about that!
Song Description
Failing through life and all the pitfalls that accompany a life of abandon I learned the hard way the Jesus is The Way, The Truth and The Life. A Free Gift for all who will see and believe!

Lyrics
The Price of Paradise by Jon Beckwith Moore (ASCAP) All Rights Reserved
SPOKEN-
ONE MAN...ONE LIFE...HE LIVED SO YOU CAN LIVE...
HE DIED SO YOU WON'T DIE... BY HIS STRIPES YOU ARE HEALED... BY HIS TOUCH YOU ARE FREE...
Jesus Christ my Savior, He's the King of Kings
Shed His Blood and died for me, it's His Love that makes me sing All of my transgressions, and all of my sins
Were nailed to the Cross with Him to buy my freedom to be with Him
That's the price of paradise, he hurt and died to set us free That's the price of paradise, nailed my Savior to a tree
That's the price of paradise, He paid the price for you and me
That's the price of paradise, can't you see, he loves us so much...
All who call upon His name, truly shall be saved
Live in peace eternally, He's the Truth, the Life, the Way Look inside your heart to see, is emptiness there
Won't you please accept God's gift, free salvation, a love so rare
That's the price of paradise, he hurt and died to set us free That's the price of paradise, nailed my Savior to a tree
That's the price of paradise, He paid the price for you and me
That's the price of paradise, can't you see, he loves us so much...
Open your heart and let the Lord in, sing it with me
Open your heart and let the Lord in, won't you sing it again now Open your heart and let the Lord in, sing it with me
Open your heart and let the Lord in, won't you sing it again now
That's the price of paradise, he hurt and died to set us free That's the price of paradise, nailed my Savior to a tree
That's the price of paradise, He paid the price for you and me
That's the price of paradise, can't you see, he loves us so much...
