“REDEEMED!”
1 Corinthians 6:19-20
“Do you not know that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God, and you are not your own? For you were bought at a price; therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit.”


The Hebrew word for redeem as used in Psalm 103:4, is the word, ga'al. In addition to redeem something, it also means to ransom someone.  Many of you may
have read about modern day pirates taking over large vessels and holding the ship and personnel until their ransom demands have been met.

Each and every one of us born into this world is held hostage to sin. We do not have to learn how to sin—it comes natural.  It is the common characteristic of each
and every human. The blessed thing is that we have been redeemed by the sacrifice of Jesus. He paid the price and we have been—REDEEMED!  

The writer of this hymn, Fanny Crosby, was eagerly looking forward to that day when her Redeemer would appear and her blinded eyes would be opened and she would behold the most beautiful sight she could ever imagine—Jesus!

REDEEMED

(1) Redeemed, how I love to proclaim it! Redeemed by the blood of the Lamb;
Redeemed through His infinite mercy, His child and forever I am.
REFRAIN: Redeemed, redeemed, Redeemed by the blood of the Lamb;
Redeemed, redeemed, His child and forever I am.
(2) Redeemed, and so happy in Jesus, No language my rapture can tell;
I know that the light of His presence, With me doth continually dwell.
REFRAIN: Redeemed, redeemed, Redeemed by the blood of the Lamb;
Redeemed, redeemed, His child and forever I am.
(3) 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.
REFRAIN: Redeemed, redeemed, Redeemed by the blood of the Lamb;
Redeemed, redeemed, His child and forever I am.
(4) 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.
REFRAIN: Redeemed, redeemed, Redeemed by the blood of the Lamb;
Redeemed, redeemed, His child and forever I am.
(5) I know there’s a crown that is waiting, in yonder bright mansion for me,
And soon, with the spirits made perfect, At home with the Lord I shall be.
REFRAIN: Redeemed, redeemed, Redeemed by the blood of the Lamb;
Redeemed, redeemed, His child and forever I am.
