Blessed Redeemer

Blessed Redeemer full of compassion
Great is Thy mercy, boundless and free
Now in my weakness, seeking Thy favor
Lord, I am coming closer to Thee

Blessèd Redeemer, wonderful Savior
Fountain of wisdom, ancient of Days
Hope of the faithful, light of all ages
Jesus my Savior, Thee will I praise

Blessèd Redeemer, Thou art my refuge
Under Thy watch-care, safe I shall be
Gladly adoring, joyfully trusting
Still I am coming closer to Thee

Blessèd Redeemer, gracious and tender
New and forever dwell Thou in me
Thou, my protector, shield and defender
Draw me and keep me closer to Thee

Words by Fanny Crosby ( 1820 – 1915)
