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.

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 (29) LOVE DIVINE ALL LOVES EXCELLING Charles Wesley Often called the"best hymn in the English Language. Our recommended video has the best hymn sung to the best tune. 1 Love divine, all loves excelling, Joy of heaven to earth come down; Fix in us thy humble dwelling; All thy faithful mercies crown! Jesus, Thou art all compassion, Pure unbounded love Thou art; Visit us with Thy salvation; Enter every trembling heart.   2 Breathe, O breathe Thy loving Spirit, Into every troubled breast! Let us all in Thee inherit; Let us find thy promised rest. Take away our love of sinning; Alpha and Omega be; End of faith, as its beginning, Set our hearts at liberty. 3 Come, Almighty to deliver, Let us all Thy grace receive; Suddenly return and never, Never more Thy temples leave. Thee we would be always blessing, Serve Thee as Thy hosts above, Pray and praise Thee without ceasing, Glory in Thy perfect love. ...

  SONG STUDY 27  IN CHRIST ALONE Stuart Townend and Keith Getty These two great songwriters have combined to write many modern Christian songs. This song is one of their best.                               In Christ alone my hope is found He is my light my strength my song. This Cornerstone this solid Ground Firm through the fiercest drought and storm. What heights of love what depths of peace When fears are stilled when strivings cease My comforter my All in All Here in the love of Christ I stand.   In Christ alone who took on flesh Fullness of God in helpless babe. This gift of love and righteousness Scorned by the ones he came to save. Till on that cross as Jesus died The wrath of God was satisfied For every sin on Him was laid Here in the death of Christ I live.   There in the ground His body lay Light of the world by darkness slain. Then ...
