Music by

Tune
REDEEMED · 8.8.7.8.8.7
Scripture
Titus 2:14
Verse 1
Redeemed! how I love to proclaim it!
Redeemed by the blood of the Lamb;
Redeemed through His infinite mercy,
His child, and forever, I am.
Refrain
Redeemed, redeemed,
Redeemed by the blood of the Lamb;
Redeemed, redeemed,
His child, and forever, I am.
Verse 2
Redeemed! and so happy in Jesus!
No language my rapture can tell;
I know that the light of His presence
With me doth continually dwell.
Verse 3
I think of my blessed Redeemer,
I think of Him all the day long;
I sing, for I cannot be silent;
His love is the theme of my song.
Verse 4
I know I shall see in His beauty
The King in whose law I delight,
Who lovingly guardeth my footsteps,
And giveth me songs in the night.
Verse 5
I know there’s a crown that is waiting,
In yonder bright mansion for me;
And soon, with the spirits made perfect,
At home with the Lord I shall be.

Habershon's testimony hymn celebrates redemption through Christ and was widely adopted in evangelical churches.
