I have heard this hymn before but was reminded of it again recently and really appreciated its message. A few questions to consider as you read and meditate on the words of this hymn: Are you willing to, and have you, given all your life to Him? Have you been pardoned from sin and joined the angels singing? Have you allowed him to make your life worth living? He has signed the pardon for each one of us - have you allowed Him to set you free?
I was in sin's prison, oh, so dark and cold
Like a lost sheep wandering from God's eternal fold.
Then the door swung open, and He spoke to me,
"I have signed your pardon, now you may go free."

Jesus signed my pardon, this I surely know
Took my place at Calvary, now I won't have to go.
All my life I'll give to Him - He gave His for me
When He signed my pardon there at Calvary.
Since the Savior led me from that awful place
I can hear the angels as they sing Amazing Grace.
I know I was pardoned from my sin and shame
When I joined them singing, "Glory to His name."

I know I was pardoned from my sin and shame
When I joined them singing, "Glory to His name."
Life is now worth living since I've been set free.
I'm so glad He was willing to save a wretch like me.
Now I have a mansion, not a prison wall.
Jesus signed my pardon, Jesus paid it all.

Jesus signed my pardon, Jesus paid it all.
Yes, Jesus signed my pardon - Jesus paid it all!

How gloriously wonderful it is to know that the Lord died for us! That He redeems us when we believe in Him. That His precious blood washes us clean. He did indeed pay a debt that we could not pay . . . oh, what a Savior!
My heart says "Amen" to what you have said here, Sarah! He is worthy!
