[I lay bound and helpless in the toils of sin]
Redeemed
Author: May Maurice Hymnal: Songs for Work and Worship #74 (1900) First Line: I lay bound and helpless in the toils of sin Refrain First Line: Jesus has redeemed me, this shall be my song Lyrics: 1 I lay bound and helpless in the toils of sin,
All was dark around me, all was dark within;
Jesus, full of pity, left his home above,
Came my soul to rescue, what amazing love!
Chorus:
Jesus has redeemed me, this shall be my song;
Jesus has redeemed me, I to him belong.
2 I will gladly follow where my Savior leads,
Through the tangle wildwood, or through flow’ry meads;
By his love encircled, naught of ill I fear,
Singing as I journey, so that all may hear: [Chorus]
3 Come, O come to Jesus, why will you delay?
Now he waits to save you, why not come today?
What a blessed Savior! all who will may come;
Take his offered pardon, share his happy home. [Chorus]
