Hymn
Redeeming Love
Now begin the heavenly theme,
Sing aloud in Jesus' name!
Ye who His salvation prove,
Triumph in redeeming love.
Ye who see the Father's grace
Beaming in the Saviour's face,
As to heaven ye onward move,
Triumph in redeeming love.
Mourning souls dry up your tears;
Banish all your guilty fears;
See your guilt and curse remove,
Cancelled by redeeming love.
Ye, alas! who long have been
Willing slaves of death and sin,
Now from bliss no longer rove;
Stop, and taste redeeming love.
Amen.
