Twentieth (20th) Century Songs Part One ‎#93

93. Since I Have Been Redeemed

I love to tell the story,
Since I’ve been redeemed,
Of Jesus and His glory,
Since I’ve been redeemed;
It is a story ever new,
O let me tell it now to you!
‘Tis sweet because I know ‘tis true,
Since I’ve been redeemed.

Chorus:
Christ is dearer, dearer,
The way is growing clearer,
And heav’n is coming nearer,
Since I’ve been redeemed.

I love to tell the story,
Since I’ve been redeemed,
It brings the Lord before me,
Since I’ve been redeemed,
More deep and wonderful it seems
Than all my wealth of golden dreams;
Each word a gem of beauty seems,
Since I’ve been redeemed.

I love to tell the story,
Since I’ve been redeemed,
I hear it echoes o’er me,
Since I’ve been redeemed;
And when with yonder shining throng,
I join to sing the new, new song,
‘Twill be the them I’ve loved so long,
Since I’ve been redeemed.
