Author: Harriett H. Pierson Hymnal: The Finest of the Wheat No. 3 #13 (1904) First Line: One life reclaimed from death and sin Refrain First Line: “One soul redeemed! one soul redeemed!” Lyrics: 1 One life reclaimed from death and sin,
Thro’ heav’n the tidings roll;
Glad voices shout their jubilee
O’er one more ransomed soul.
Refrain:
“One soul redeemed! one soul redeemed!”
O hear the angels sing;
Rejoice! rejoice! ye heav’nly hosts,
All glory to our King!
2 Were all the sweetest songs of earth
In one rich flood outpoured,
Yet grander far the angels’ song
O’er one more soul restored. [Refrain]
3 It echoes thro’ the golden streets,
It rings from tow’r and dome;
That song the angels love to sing
O’er wand’rers welcomed home. [Refrain]
4 Now thro’ the open city gates
We hear the harps resound,
And sweet and clear the chorus swells,
“A soul once lost is found.” [Refrain] Topics: Atonement-Salvation Tune Title: [One life reclaimed from death and sin]
One Soul Redeemed
