Christ Is My Redeemer

Representative Text

1 From the world of want and sin,
Christ is my Redeemer;
He can keep me pure and clean,
Christ is my Redeemer.

Chorus:
He has saved me by His grace,
Made in heav’n for me a place;
I shall see Him face to face,
Christ is my Redeemer.

2 I shall see His wounded side,
Christ is my Redeemer;
See His hands that bled and died,
Christ is my Redeemer. [Chorus]

3 Like my Lord, once crucified,
Christ is my Redeemer;
I shall waken satisfied,
Christ is my Redeemer. [Chorus]
