O Lord, My Redeemer
And the Roman soldiers laughed
When they saw their pris’ner stumble.
He did not revile them back
And wondering I asked, who was this man so humble?
And a woman at my side
Choked on her reply
Though she struggled not to weep, the tears poured down her cheek
Her heart breaking as she cried
O Lord, my redeemer, thou hast done so much for me
O Lord, my redeemer, all my love I give to thee
And the crowd went pushing on
I felt compelled to follow.
I knew that they were wrong, how they mocked him all along
Suddenly my heart felt hollow
For they nailed him to a tree
On a hill called Calvary
While I stood there filled with wonder, the heavens roared with thunder
And again I heard the plea
O Lord, my redeemer, thou hast done so much for me
O Lord, my redeemer, all my love I give to thee
I could not forget his face
As I wandered from that place
With the questions ever burning, I put myself to learning
And each answer came with grace
And I knelt in earnest prayer
His memory still there
And the more that I’d inquire, the hotter burned the fire
I found joy beyond compare
And the day turned into three
Morning found me in a garden
Where the gentle April breeze, returned me to my knees
Pleading for a pardon
And I can’t say when or why
I opened up my eyes
But His feet were there before me, His hands were opened o’er me
And His face I recognized.
O Lord, my redeemer, thou hast done so much for me
O Lord, my redeemer, all my love I give to thee
Love you all! Hope you have a good week.
