1 My soul rejoicing fain would raise A strain like that above, And sing in grateful harmonies Of God’s redeeming love.
Refrain: Redeeming love! Redeeming love! A story never old; Still sweeter as the years go by, Still bright as burnished gold.
2 When darkly bend the clouds of life, And loud its tempests roll, How like a benediction calm Thy power upon my soul. [Refrain]
3 Redeeming love! Thou blest refrain! Let mortal music cease While angels o’er the list’ning earth Prolong thy notes of peace. [Refrain]Source: The Great Awakening: a choice collection of new and standard gospel songs #91
