I heard a sweet voice, saying "come unto me,
O weary one, laden with sin;
I've wept for thy sadness, and carried for thee
Thy burden of woe on the sorrowful tree.
And died thy lost soul to redeem."
Oh! yes, I'm redeemed, oh, sing it, my soul,
Till all the glad tidings have heard;
Now let the song echo from pole to pole,
Oh! yes, I'm redeemed by the Lord.
I came in my sorrow, my fear and my shame,
And leaned on his crucified breast;
The promises pleaded in Jesus' dear name.
And oh, how he banished my anguish and pain,
And gave to my soul his sweet rest.
Oh! yes, I'm redeemed, oh, sing it, my soul,
Till all the glad tidings have heard;
Now let the song echo from pole to pole,
Oh! yes, I'm redeemed by the Lord.
Though oft in my frailty I err from the way,
And thus sadly grieve my dear Lord;
His Spirit doth follow wherever I stray,
His love ever guards me by night and by day,
I'm triumphant still in his word.
Oh! yes, I'm redeemed, oh, sing it, my soul,
Till all the glad tidings have heard;
Now let the song echo from pole to pole,
Oh! yes, I'm redeemed by the Lord.
Then sing on thy journey, my soul, let thy song
O'er sea, hill and vale echo wide;
The old story tell to the world's giddy throng,
Through time and forever the anthem prolong,
"I've sinned, but my Saviour hath died."
Oh! yes, I'm redeemed, oh, sing it, my soul,
Till all the glad tidings have heard;
Now let the song echo from pole to pole,
Oh! yes, I'm redeemed by the Lord.
