“Come, sing, my soul, and praise the Lord”


 
A hymn written by D. W. Whittle

(1)

Come, sing, my soul, and praise the Lord,
Who hath redeemed thee by His blood;
Delivered thee from chains that bound,
And brought thee to redemption ground.

(Chorus)

            Redemption ground, the ground of peace!
            Redemption ground O wondrous grace!
            Here let our praise to God abound;
            Who saves us on redemption ground!

(2)

Once from my God I wandered far,
And with His holy will made war;
But now my songs to God abound;
I'm standing on redemption ground.

(3)

Oh, joyous hour, when God to me
A vision gave of Calvary:
My bonds were loosed, my soul unbound;
I sang upon redemption ground.

(4)

No works of merit now I plead,
But Jesus take for all my need;
No righteousness in me is found,
Except upon redemption ground.

(5

Come, weary soul, and here find rest;
Accept redemption, and be blest;
The Christ who died by God is crowned
To pardon on redemption ground.
