How wonderful redemption is,
My gracious Lord, in Thee!
Not seen, nor heard, nor e’er conceived
What Thou hast done for me!
Thou art divine, mysterious,
Beyond my grandest phrase!
Redemption is so marvellous,
Beyond all pow’r to praise!

For us Thou on the Cross wast pierced,
And blood and water streamed;
That life divine be giv’n to us,
That we may be redeemed.
Thy precious blood has made us clean,
That we accepted be;
Regenerated by Thy life,
We now are one with Thee.

Thou art the grain divine that died
The many grains to bear,
Which, blent and formed, Thy Body are.
And all Thy nature share.
We are the increase of Thyself,
And Thou our content art;
Through us Thou livest and dost move
And manifested art.

Since we’re Thy Body, Thou may come
And settle down in us;
In us Thou may obtain Thy home
And we become Thy trust.
Thy heart to satisfy and please,
We are Thy counterpart,
Now in one Body with Thyself,
Enjoying all Thou art.

While in remembrance now we meet
And here the symbols see,
For Thy redemption great and full
We’re filled with praise to Thee.
Since we are made Thy Body, Lord,
Thy dwelling place and bride,
We would give thanks and worship Thee
And in Thy praise abide.

7. Redeemed
The word “redeemed” means to buy back something that originally was yours but has been lost. Redemption, therefore, means to repossess something at a cost. Originally we belonged to God; we were His possession. However, we were lost. Because God was not willing to give us up, He paid the price to get us back, repossessing us at a great cost. This is redemption. It was not a simple matter for God to redeem us, because our being lost involved us in sins and in many other things that are contrary to God’s righteousness, holiness, and glory. Many requirements were laid upon us—the demands of God’s righteousness, holiness, and glory—and it was impossible for us to fulfill them. But God paid the price to redeem us and thereby repossessed us at a tremendous cost. This was accomplished when Christ died on the cross to obtain eternal redemption for us (Gal. 3:13; 1 Pet. 2:24; 3:18; 2 Cor. 5:21; Heb. 10:12; 9:28). His blood obtained eternal redemption for us (Heb. 9:12, 14; 1 Pet. 1:18-19).
