Redeemer

Jesus, You are my Redeemer,

A fact I cannot escape,

Nothing I could ever do

Would pay the debt I owed,

My sins, my costs still due.

Then You came most humbly,

The Son of God, Lord Almighty,

You said I’ll pay the price,

For everyone who will accept

The gift of You, Jesus Christ.

You paid that price

Upon a cross, mocked and shamed,

Bleeding from the nails, the stripes,

Willingly You gave up Your spirit,

My Redeemer You became.

My Redeemer, O Redeemer

You paid the price for me,

A gift I can never hope to repay.

My Redeemer, O Redeemer,

What love Your act did say.
