Tune:[Tho' I was once condemned to die]
Composer:R. H. Cornelius

47. Redeemed Through Love

1 Tho' I was once condemned to die
Thro' love I have been redeemed;
My pardon came from God on high,
Thro' love I have been redeemed.

Refrain:
Redeemed, redeemed,
My pardon came from heav'n above;
Redeemed, redeemed,
Thro' love I have been redeemed.

2 Tho' held in chains of slavery,
Thro' love I have been redeemed;
Christ bought me back on Calvary,
Thro' love I have been redeemed. [Refrain]

3 Tho' I was into bondage sold,
Thro' love I have been redeemed;
Not with earth's silver nor its gold,
Thro' love I have been redeemed. [Refrain]

4 Love now fills all my heart and soul,
Thro' love I have been redeemed;
I'll tell in heav'n while ages roll,
Thro' love I have been redeemed. [Refrain]
