Everything has gone up in price, From daily bread to sacrifice. The cost of living climbs each day, And hard-earned dollars slip away.
Homes and fuel and simple things, All feel the weight that rising brings. What once was small now costs us more— We feel it deep within our core.
But there’s one gift that still stands tall, Unchanged, unpriced, untouched by all. No tax applied, no hidden fee, No shifting rate in history.
Salvation’s price was paid in full, By hands once pierced on Calvary’s hill. The debt we owed, He bore alone, The price complete, the payment shown.
Everything else may rise and fall, But grace still answers every call. Though markets change and fortunes shift, God’s saving love remains a gift.
It’s free to us—though not to Him, For mercy flowed when hope was dim. Forever settled, signed in red— By Jesus’ blood so freely shed.
So when the world feels tight and strained, And earthly treasures can’t be gained, Remember this—let hope uplift: Salvation still’s a free, paid gift.
Bible Verse:
“For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast.” Ephesians 2:8–9 (KJV
