Story Behind The Song
My pastor, Robert Jeffress, said that Mark 16:19 was a little known verse but had a lot of power. It indicates that there is nothing further we as Christians need to do to pay the price for sin. When Jesus finally arrived in heaven, he was allowed to sit

Lyrics
He Sat Down
I'm not perfect just forgiven
I've been set free from Satan's prison
The separation from my maker is over for all time
Jesus' love is big enough no matter what your crime
He took all the beatings that were meant for me
The nails in His hands and His feet should have been my penalty
When He said, "It is finished" and then bowed His head and died
His work was finally over and now He's there at God's side.
Chorus
He sat down, God smiled. Jesus paid it all
He sat down at God's right hand until the last trumpet call.
He was willing to come down here and set aside His crown
He became the perfect sacrifice and then, He sat down
Now the soldiers of His army are spreading the news
Jesus Christ has set you free. Do you love Him too?
Bow your knee change your ways cause He's waiting at the door
Write my name in the book of life. I want to know you Lord.
Bridge
He loved me. He cared for me. He laid down His life...
He built our bridge back to God with His perfect sacrifice.
