I Will Sing

Description

Philip Bliss, a well known hymn author, penned these beloved lyrics in the 19th century. A song about singing (which we find makes a very special song indeed), "I Will Sing" is an endearing tale of what our Savior has done for us. From the wondrous love shown in His debt-paying sacrifice, to His conquering power which gives us the victory over death, singing this hymn reminds us of why it is we can sing our praises to our Lord with such joy.

Lyrics

I will sing of my Redeemer and His wondrous love to me;
On the cruel cross He suffered, from the curse, He set me free.
I will sing of my Redeemer! With His blood He purchased me,
On the cross He sealed my pardon, paid my debt and made me free.

Chorus:
I will sing of my Redeemer,
I will sing of my Redeemer,
Oh, I will sing!

I will tell the wondrous story, how my lost estate to save,
In His boundless love and mercy, He the ransom freely gave.
I will praise my dear Redeemer, His triumphant power I'll tell;
How the victory He giveth over sin and death and hell.

I will sing of my Redeemer, and His heavn'ly love to me;
He from death to life has brought me, Son of God, with Him to be.
I will sing of my Redeemer! With His blood He purchased me,
On the cross He sealed my pardon, paid my debt and made me free.

Words by Philip Bliss (1838-76), Music by David L. Ward
