Redeemed, Restored, Forgiven

lyricist: Henry Baker, 1876
Composer: Nuremberg, Germany: 1532

Redeemed

re­stored

for­giv­en

Through Je­sus’ pre­cious blood

Heirs of His home in Heav­en

Oh

praise our par­don­ing God!

Praise Him in tune­ful mea­sures

Who gave His Son to die;

Praise Him whose sev’n­fold trea­sures

Enrich and sanc­ti­fy.

Once on the drea­ry mount­ain

We wan­dered far and wide

Far from the cleans­ing fount­ain

Far from the pierc­èd side;

But Je­sus sought and found us

And washed our guilt away;

With cords of love He bound us

To be His own for aye.

Dear Mas­ter

Thine the glo­ry

Of each re­cov­ered soul

Ah! who can tell the sto­ry

Of love that made us whole?

Not ours

not ours

the mer­it;

Be Thine alone the praise

And ours a thank­ful spir­it

To serve Thee all our days.

Now keep us

holy Sav­ior

In Thy true love and fear

And grant us of Thy fa­vor

The grace to per­sev­ere

Till

in Thy new cre­ation

Earth’s time-long tra­vail o’er

We find our full sal­va­tion

And praise Thee ev­er­more.
