Several weeks ago Bro. Joe Anders (a dear friend of ours who was a member of our church years ago) shared with us a new song he had written. It has such a wonderful message and melody and we are thrilled that Bro. Joe sent us the words so we could learn it. This was the only the second time we had did it live so it’s a bit rough but we wanted to share it anyway. We love it!
A member of our church (Easter Avenue Baptist in Florida) introduced my 3 girls to your music recently, and my girls have not stopped listening since! We love The Only Thing He Bought and wondered how we could get the words?
You are such a blessing!
Charity Vickers
Thank you so much for the kind words! Here are the words! Blessings!
The Only Thing He Bought Was Me
V.1
He was born in a stable in a borrowed manger
He borrowed a lunch and fed a lot of people
He borrowed a colt to ride into to town on
He borrowed a tomb but He wouldn’t need it long
Chorus
And the only thing He bought was me
When He shed His blood on Calvary
Now redeemed by His blood for eternity
The only thing He bought was me
V.2
On the auction block of sin this world had turned me down
And Satan had told me you’re hell bound
You’re never gonna win, your soul’s forever lost
But Jesus paid it all on that old rugged cross
Bridge
Forgiven and forgotten, my sins are all gone
I’ve been bought by the blood of the One who owns it all
If I knew how to share a video, I’d show you my girls singing your song! You are a blessing and an inspiration to my family and my girls! Thank you, and may God continue to bless you!! If we are ever in Georgia we will be sure to track you down … and if you ever get to Florida, please stop by! 🙂 (We are at Bro. Lance Carpenter’s home church.)
Aw! We so wish we could see it! Thank you so much for the sweet words of encouragement. We’d love to meet you all. Bro. Carpenter is one of our favorite people in the whole world. Many blessings!

Hello sister! I’ve just emailed you what we have! God bless!
Can we please get the piano sheet music to this song. Our kids want to learn this to sing at church! Thank you
Please email us at wesley@morrisonsisters.com and we will send you the sheet music!
i was sent this song by a family member, and when i began to listen to it, my soul was filled to the point that i cant even explain. I have listen to it over, and over again. My name is Robert Vines, I had a Trio for 5 years, I am now Pastoring a Church in McDonough Ga. for the past 10 years. Would you guys be willing to come to our church? We do Concerts every month and we have had groups such as The Kingsman, Gold City, Jeff andSherri Easter, The Perrys, and most of the full time groups. The only reason i mention that is because you not knowing us, it will give you an idea that we are serious about gospel music and the message it delivers. I could feel the spirit of the Lord in your singing and thats what drew me to send this. You guys are something special. We stay booked up, but id love to try and work something out with your group to come and be with us. Our church number is 770 – 957- 2818. God bless you guys, yall are awesome. Pastor Robert Vines of The Ole Country Church in McDonough Ga.
Hello Bro. Vines – Thank you so much for the kind words and so sorry for the delay in responding (sometimes theses comments get lost and we don’t see them immediately). We’d love to come sometime. Just check our schedule here on the website and let us know if you see a date that might work for you all. Thank you so much!
