Redeemed, Restored, Forgiven Songtext
von Matthew Smith

Once on a dreary mountain
We wandered far and wide
Far from the cleansing fountain
Far from the pierced side
But Jesus sought and found us
And washed our guilt away
With cords of love He bound us
To be His own today

Redeemed, restored, forgiven
Through Jesus′ precious blood
Heirs of His home in Heaven
Oh praise our pardoning God


Dear Lord receive the glory
Of each recovered soul
Oh who can tell the story
Of love that made us whole
Not ours, not ours, the merit
Be Yours alone the praise
And ours a thankful spirit
To serve You all our days

Redeemed, restored, forgiven
Through Jesus' precious blood
Heirs of His home in heaven
Oh praise our pardoning God

Now keep us, holy Savior
In Your true love and fear
And grant us by Your favor
The grace to persevere

Till in Your new creation
When Earth meets Heaven′s shore
We find our full salvation
And praise You evermore

Redeemed, restored, forgiven
Through Jesus' precious blood
Heirs of His home in heaven
Oh praise our God


Redeemed, restored, forgiven
Through Jesus' precious blood
Heirs of His home in heaven
Oh praise our pardoning God
Praise our God
