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 40 years ago.

Questions.

   1.        Understanding the words: redeemer, Messiah,  holy, glory.

2.   Verse 1. The idea of a redeemer and redemption runs right through the Bible. See, for example, Leviticus 25:29, Ruth 4:1-15, Job 19:25, Jeremiah 50:33-34, Hosea 3:1-5 and Romans 3:21-26.

3.   Jesus is described in 5 ways in this verse. What does “precious lamb of God” mean? See John 1:29-34.

4.   Chorus. What is God’s work on earth? John 16:5-15 and Matthew 6:9-10.

5.   Verse 2. “Name above all names”. See Acts 4:8-12 and Philippians 2:9-11.

6.   Verse 3. When will we see His face and why is this so important to believers? See Revelation 22:3-5 and 1 John 3:2.

7.   What holy place? See Hebrews 9:11-14 and Revelation 7:9-17

SONG STUDY (1) INTRODUCTION - BIBLE STUDIES BASED ON HYMNS AND SONGS The words in most hymns and Christian songs often contain quotes from the Bible and these are frequently taken from the King James (Authorised) translation. Because of changes in word meanings since the seventeenth century, modern singers frequently have only a vague understanding of what the song writer meant. Even songs being written today use difficult words and ideas. There is a tendency to use what may be called "Christian jargon", which may be meaningful to some and meaningless to others. Stuart Townend (1963 -) It is assumed that the reader has a copy of the Bible on hand. There are many modern translations around; the writer uses the NIV (New International Version). Isaac Watts 1674-1748 The studies in this blog series have been used at the Glen Innes and Lithgow Baptist churches in NSW, Australia. Feel free to copy (and adapt) for your own personal use or for group study. https://johnsblue...

Song Study 12: Meekness and Majesty

Song Study (12) MEEKNESS AND MAJESTY This is a modern hymn by Graham Kendrick (UK), written in 1986. Like the earlier hymns we have examined, it is based on Scripture and contains some difficult words. The message of the song is “ When God became man in the form of Jesus he came as a servant. This is what he expects of us too. ” Rather than a series of questions, let’s look at a series of “key Scriptures” to help us understand what this means and how we are to respond to God’s grace.  Meekness and Majesty:  Meekness And Majesty - Graham Kendrick Lyric Video - YouTube                                Meekness and majesty, Manhood and Deity, In perfect harmony, The Man who is God. Lord of eternity Dwells in humanity, Kneels in humility And washes our feet.      O what a mystery, Meekness and majesty. Bow down and worship For this is your God, This is your G...
