He Ransomed Me

C
There’s a sweet and blessed story
       F
Of the Christ who cam from glory
        G7                     C
Just to rescue me from sin and misery

He in loving kindness sought me
         Am      Dm         E
And from sin and shame hath brought me
Dm   G           G7       C
Hallelujah Jesus ransomed me


Chorus:
G
Hallelujah, what a saviour
        C
Who can take the poor lost sinner
         D                              G7
Lift him from the miry clay and set him free
  C
I will ever tell the story
                  Dm     E
Shouting, “Glory, glory, glory
Dm   G           G7       C
Hallelujah Jesus ransomed me”

Chorus

From the depths of sin and sadness
To the heights of joy and gladness
Jesus lifted me, in mercy full and free
With His precious blood He bought me
When I knew Him not He sought me
And in love divine He ransomed me

Chorus

From the throne of heavenly glory
Oh the sweet and blessed story
Jesus came to life the lost in sin and woe
Into liberty all glorious
Trophies of His grace victorious
Evermore rejoicing here below

Chorus

By and by with joy increasing
And with gratitude unceasing
Lifted up with Christ forever more to be
I will join the hosts there singing
In anthems ever ringing
To the King of Love who ransomed me

Chorus
