133. The Ransom Price

1 God’s love divine has won my heart,
And now he’s mine, we cannot part;
Sometimes I think, O can it be
The ransom price was paid for me?

Refrain:
Such love to man is all divine,
I know I’m his, and he is mine;
Oh, glory, glory, I am free!
The ransom price was paid for me.

2 My hope was gone, my heat was faint,
I lived in sin with no restraint;
But on that blood-stained cross I see
The ransom price was paid for me. [Refrain]

3 My heart, submerged in sable gloom,
Bespoke great fear beyond the tomb;
But round the world good news rang free:
“The ransom price was paid for thee.” [Refrain]

4 My heart is glad, I must rejoice,
Give praise to God with all my voice;
I heard the sound from Calvary:
“The ransom price was paid for thee.” [Refrain]
