There is a word that 's so dear to my heart
It's brought life to my dark dreary soul
For without it my end would be pain and dispair
And God's city I would never behold.
But Satan once held me so firm in his prison
I'ld never get out so it seemed
Then one day I heard footsteps down the hall of the prison
And the voice cried "I've come to redeem".
Redeem, the best thing I've ever heard
I've rocked here from there by that precious word
I'm free I'm forgiven I'm washed and I'm clean
Jesus bought me thank God I'm redeemed.
Oh how Christ loved us so much He was willing
to die on that old rugged tree
His Blood was my payment once now and forever
I'm His now thank God I'm redeemed.
Redeem, the best thing I've ever heard
I've been brought here from there by that precious word
I'm free, I'm forgiven, I'm washed and I'm clean
Jesus bought me thank God I'm redeemed.
