SONG STUDY (17)  THERE IS A REDEEMER

                                              Melody Green

1.

         There is a Redeemer,

         Jesus God’s own Son,

         Precious Lamb of God, Messiah,

         Holy One.

Chorus                                                        

         Thank you, O our Father

         For giving us Your Son,

         And leaving Your Spirit

         Till Your work on earth is done.

        

         2.

         Jesus my Redeemer,

         Name above all names,

         Precious Lamb of God, Messiah,

         O for sinners slain.

         3.

         When I stand in glory

         I will see His face

         And there I’ll serve my King forever,

         In that holy place.

This has become a much loved song, especially since Keith Green was tragically killed about 30 years ago.
