Song Story:  THE  LYRICS: Actually not a house mortgage but calculating how to pay off a loan for a van was the inspiration of this song. But the concept struck me as a wonderful parable, with so many people losing jobs or otherwise having a harder time making a living these days.

LYRICS    4/4  time.  (2 measures per line; some syllables join for 1 count)
1
There
was a mortgage _   /  on my soul  (_ its)
price kept (rising) _ /  no control. _
Ev'ry wrong ( _ I )   /   did or thought __
raised my (mortgage) __ / Raised its cost.

So far, (I was) __     /  let to stay, __
while _  (scared a-) (bout the) / coming day __
when my (mortgage) __ /  must be paid,  (and I'd)
die for- (ever)  (in a)  /  black  (screaming) place. (__ The)
price for (not be-) (ing a-) /  ble to pay  ( __ the)

CHORUS
How (can we) (ever) find / joy in life __
(knowing) __ (we can-) not  /  pay the price __
of our sins, so  /  we'll be cleansed to
(enter) __ Life with /  God?  __ if we
(repent) (__ and) Name Him / LORD, (Romans) 10: 9.

What (ama-) (zing grace) that / Jesus Christ __
(chose to) __ (die to) pay  /  our sin's price....
Chose to pay our mortgaged (price so) we can)  
(enter) __ Life with /  God!  __ if we
(repent) (__ and) Name Him / LORD, (Romans) 10: 9
