Redeemed

Lyrics by
Eliza Edmunds Hewitt (1889)
Music by
John Robson (1889)
Tune
I AM REDEEMED · 8.7.8.7.88
Scripture
1 Corinthians 6:20
Verse 1
Redeemed, how I love to proclaim it!
Redeemed by the blood of the Lamb;
Redeemed thro' His infinite mercy,
His child, and forever, I am.
Refrain
Redeemed, redeemed,
Redeemed by the blood of the Lamb;
Redeemed, how I love to proclaim it!
His child and forever I am.
Verse 2
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 3
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.

Hewitt's affirmation of redemption status became widely used in American evangelicalism and Seventh-day Adventist worship.
