REDEEMED – Your Redemption Draws Near by Bro H
“Look up and lift up your heads, because your redemption draws near.” The price was paid at Calvary— The full deliverance is coming. [Verse 1] I will bring you out from Egypt, I will break the tyrant’s claim; With an outstretched arm and judgments, I will take you as My people. Israel crossed upon the dry ground, Pharaoh’s host was swept away; They were redeemed from Egypt’s bondage, Brought to Sinai to obey. But the wilderness still tested Every heart that had been freed; Many fell beneath the judgment— They were redeemed, yet disbelieved. Redemption opened covenant standing; It did not cancel God’s command. Those who hardened themselves against Him Never entered the promised land. [Chorus] Redemption restores the position; Salvation transforms the condition. The ransom was paid, But the race must be run; We endure faithfully Till the work is done. Redeemed, then called; Justified, sanctified; Saved through endurance, At last glorified. Lift up your heads, let every chain fall— Your redemption draws near, Your redemption draws near! [Verse 2] When the fullness of the time came, God sent forth His promised Son, Born of woman, born beneath the law, To redeem those under law. The certificate of debt against us He removed and nailed it to the cross; He disarmed the ruling powers And made a public show of them. “You were bought with a price,” says Scripture; “Do not be the slaves of men.” No banker, ruler, threat, or bribe Can purchase those Christ has redeemed. The price He paid is without equal; No earthly master owns His sheep. The Shepherd gave His life to ransom Those the Father gave Him to keep. [Chorus] Redemption restores the position; Salvation transforms the condition. The ransom was paid, But the race must be run; We endure faithfully Till the work is done. Redeemed, then called; Justified, sanctified; Saved through endurance, At last glorified. Lift up your heads, let every chain fall— Your redemption draws near, Your redemption draws near! [Verse 3] The Spirit is the earnest given, The pledge of our inheritance; We are sealed unto redemption, Waiting for deliverance. Even Paul, redeemed and faithful, Groaned beneath this mortal frame; Still sold beneath the power of sin, He waited for the body’s change. All creation groans in travail; We who have the firstfruits groan: Waiting for the placement of sons, For the body to be bought back whole. Flesh and blood cannot inherit The Kingdom of our God; What is sown in corruption Will be raised in power by God. [Bridge] “I will ransom them from the grave; I will redeem them from death.” O death, where is your sting? O grave, where is your victory? This mortal must put on immortality; This corruptible, incorruption. The last enemy is destroyed— Death is swallowed up in victory! [Choir] The grave cannot keep What the Kinsman has purchased! The grave cannot hold Those the Father has named! The Redeemer lives! He will stand on the earth! And in resurrected flesh His people shall see Him! [Verse 4] Zion wakes beneath her bondage; Bands of iron choke her neck. She sold herself for nothing— She will be redeemed without money. Babylon built its throne on debt, On fear, deception, sin, and lies; But the strong Redeemer pleads our cause, And fallen Babylon will not rise. Sound the trumpet of the Jubilee! Let every rightful field return; Let the captive leave his master; Let the chains and ledgers burn. The Kingdom is not an evacuation; The King establishes His reign. A new heaven and a new earth— God’s righteous order will remain. [Final Chorus] Redemption restores the position; Salvation transforms the condition. The ransom was paid, And the King will return; Every enemy falls, Every chain will be burned. Redeemed, then called; Justified, sanctified; Saved through endurance, At last glorified. Lift up your heads, let all Israel hear— Your redemption draws near! Your redemption draws near! [Final Refrain] The price has been paid— Your redemption draws near! The possession is sealed— Your redemption draws near! The graves will be opened— Your redemption draws near! The Jubilee sounds— Your redemption draws near! The bridegroom is coming, The Kingdom draws near— Look up and lift up your heads: Your redemption draws near! [Outro] “The last enemy that will be destroyed is death.” Thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.
