Redemption By Blood

Lyrics

REDEMPTION BY BLOOD - Key of F

I felt death’s sting, I had sensed its snares,
Its cruel pain brought bitter tears;
How could I escape when judgement was sure?
Who could plead my cause?
And when God saw there was no one
He sent to die His only Son,
For only through blood His wrath could have been appeased.
His justice was satisfied when blood flowed from Calvary.

CHORUS

Redemption by blood,
Oh wretched man that I am,
Who shall deliver me
From the body of this death,
And who should set me free,
taking me out of this desert?
But I thank God through Jesus Christ,
And His death on Calvary,
It brought for me redemption by blood.

I felt the chains bind my soul within,
Serving that slave master sin
By reason of my bondage I sighed
And God heard my cry,
Remembering His covenant
A prophet He did truly send
With the Word of truth
To break the strongholds within,
And totally deliver me from the power of in-dwelling sin.

CHORUS

Redemption by power,
Oh, wretched slave I was made,
Who shall deliver me from the bonds of slavery?
And who shall set me free,
Taking me from my captivity?
But I thank God through Jesus Christ,
And His death on Calvary,
It brought for me redemption by power.
Redemption by blood, redemption by power,
In completeness and joy
Redemption for me.
