about free

nothing is free
there is a cost
maybe you
maybe someone else
someone has to pay
nothing is free
there is a price to every gift
given or received
never let anyone tell you
that a gift is free
nothing is free
there was a terrible cost
to the greatest gift of all
our atonement
paid in full
our life through His death and resurrection
free to you and me
but a cost nevertheless
the blameless life of someone else
nothing
absolutely nothing is free
so when a stranger offers you candy
there's always a cost
sooner or later
a price to be paid
when offered a gift
consider the giver
consider the cost
nothing is free
