Redeeming Love. Gal. 3. 13; 1 John 3. 16; Isa. 63. 9
1
Now begin the heavenly theme;
 
Sing aloud in Jesus’ name;
 
Ye who his salvation prove,
 
Triumph in redeeming love.
2
Ye who see the Father’s grace
 
Beaming in the Saviour’s face,
 
As to Canaan on you move,
 
Praise and bless redeeming love.
3
Mourning souls, dry up your tears;
 
Banish all your guilty fears;
 
See your guilt and curse remove,
 
Cancelled by redeeming love.
4
[Welcome all by sin oppressed,
 
Welcome to his sacred rest;
 
Nothing brought him from above,
 
Nothing but redeeming love.]
5
When his Spirit leads us home,
 
When we to his glory come,
 
We shall all the fulness prove
 
Of our Lord’s redeeming love.
6
[He subdued the infernal powers,
 
Those tremendous foes of ours;
 
From their cursèd empire drove,
 
Mighty in redeeming love.]
7
Hither, then, your music bring;
 
Strike aloud each cheerful string;
 
Join, ye saints, the hosts above;
 
Join to praise redeeming love.
