Nor silver nor gold hath obtained my redemption

1
Nor silver nor gold hath obtained my redemption;
No riches of earth could have saved my poor soul.
The blood of the cross is my only foundation;
The death of my Savior now maketh me whole.
  I am redeemed, but not with silver;
  I am bought, but not with gold;
Bought with a price—the blood of Jesus,
    Precious price of love untold.
2
Nor silver nor gold hath obtained my redemption;
The guilt on my conscience too heavy had grown.
The blood of the cross is my only foundation;
The death of my Savior I only can own.
3
Nor silver nor gold hath obtained my redemption;
The holy commandment forbade me draw near.
The blood of the cross is my only foundation;
The death of my Savior removeth my fear.
4
Nor silver nor gold hath obtained my redemption;
The way to God’s kingdom could not thus be bought.
The blood of the cross is my only foundation;
The death of my Savior redemption hath wrought.

I am redeemed, but not with silver;

I am bought, but not with gold;

Bought with a price—the blood of Jesus,

Precious price of love untold.

Amen! we are redeemed !!!

Thought of this great old hymn when studying 1 Peter 1:18-19 but could not find it. Thanks for keeping them alive.

Nothing will purchase our redemption except the precious blood of Christ!
