“Redeemed” – Jeharna South and One Sound Music

Redeemed (Hymn) | Jeharna South | One Sound Music

Such a beautiful rendition of this hymn.

Verse 1
Redeemed—how I love to proclaim it!
Redeemed by the blood of the Lamb;
Redeemed through His infinite mercy,
His child, and forever, I am.

Chorus
Redeemed, redeemed,
Redeemed by the blood of the Lamb;
Redeemed, redeemed,
His child, and forever, I am.

Verse 2
Redeemed and so happy in Jesus,
No language my rapture can tell;
I know that the light of His presence
With me doth continually dwell.

Verse 3
I think of my blessed Redeemer,
I think of Him all the day long;
I sing, for I cannot be silent;
His love is the theme of my song.

Verse 4
I know I shall see in His beauty
The King in whose way I delight;
Who lovingly guardeth my footsteps,
And giveth me songs in the night.

Songs of Praise

I have always been a lover of music. And good music has a way of awakening new thoughts and new ideas within us.

With that in mind, will be adding a new regular feature to the blog. As I find and am inspired by new music, I will try to share that with you as often as I can. My hope is to provide you with a new song that you can meditate on throughout the day and possibly your week.

I hope the songs are a blessing to you as they have been to me. And if you have any suggestions for songs that I might enjoy I would love to hear them.

You can comment below with the name and author or you can send me a message using our contact form. I look forward to hearing from you!

Lent 2020 | Day 36: “Great”

When I saw the word for today the phrase that jumped into my mind was: “Great are you, Lord.”

I find that we often used words in a way that actually diminishes what the words are designed to express. How many things actually inspire awe in us? And yet we use the word awesome. How many things are genuinely wonderful? But we will casually say that something is wonderful.

There are truly few things that should be described with these and other words. But, we have to slow down enough to consider what we are saying. That is not always easy. We have gotten so used to talking like this. Even if it’s not accurate.

This is what I am thinking about the word “great.” How many truly great things have I experienced? The easiest way I can describe what I am thinking is in terms of impact. How many things have truly caused a change in my life? I can name a few truly significant events. My marriage. The birth of my children. My call to ministry. These and a few others have been great moments. They have shaped who I am and even altered the trajectory of my life.

In spite of all that is going on in the world, the truth of the matter is that what God accomplished in and through Jesus’s sacrifice can truly be described as great. Maybe even the greatest of things.

As we make our way through Holy Week this year, and as we approach the glorious celebration of Christ’s resurrection, my hope is simple: May we honor God as he deserves.

Great is the Lord. And he is worthy to be praised.
