Redeeming King

Redeeming King you reign within our hearts

Redeeming King , ruling in every part

In heaven above and on earth below

There's no place to hide for there's no place to go

We will let the world know and so we will sing

Of our redeeming King.

Redeeming king you have bought us with such a great price.

Redeeming King you're a prophet and priest

And so you made the sacrifice

You laid down the crown and you embraced the cross

And for our great gain you have suffered all loss

From slavery we've been redeemed by the Redeeming King!

Beyond every blessing beyond every dream

We're awestruck by what all this freedom can mean

To be bought at no bargain but so we're redeemed

Given liberty that never ends

But in spite of the pain and in spite of the loss

The King of all heaven died thee on the cross

Only the King of Ages could pay the great cost

Our kinsman has become our king

Redeeming king you have bought us with such a great price.

Redeeming King you're a prophet and priest and so you made the sacrifice

You laid down the crown and you embraced the cross

And for our great gain you have suffered all loss

From slavery we've been redeemed by the Redeeming King!
