Blessed Redeemer

Song: Blessed Redeemer
Chorus: Blessed Redeemer! Precious Redeemer!
Seems now I see Him on Calvary's tree;
Wounded and bleeding, for sinners pleading,
Blind and unheeding, dying for me!
Verse:
Up Calvary's mountain one dreadful morn,
Walked Christ my Savior weary and worn,
Facing for sinners death on the cross
That He might save them from endless loss.
[Chorus]
Lyrics: Avis Burgeson Christiansen
Music: Harry Dixon Loes


Titus 2:13-14 He gave Himself to redeem us.

KJV: Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Savior Jesus Christ; Who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity, and purify unto himself a peculiar people, zealous of good works.
AMP: Awaiting and looking for the [fulfillment, the realization of our] blessed hope, even the glorious appearing of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ, the Messiah, the Anointed One, Who gave Himself on our behalf that He might redeem us (purchase our freedom) from all iniquity and purify for Himself a people--to be peculiarly His own--[people who are] eager and enthusiastic about [living a life that is good and filled with] beneficial deeds.
NCV: We should live like that while we wait for our great hope and the coming of the glory of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ. He gave himself for us so He might pay the price to free us from all evil and to make us pure people who belong only to Him--people who are always wanting to do good deeds.

Dorothy: Good morning! Dianne and Janet came to visit and to celebrate our belated 40th wedding anniversary on Memorial Day. We are so grateful for their presence and everyone was very delightful to meet with them. Holy Spirit woke Dianne to join with me, watching me working on Fresh Manna. She was so thrilled and blessed by Holy Spirit. Bless her heart for being a wonderful supporter in prayer.

Dianne: I am so thrilled to be here and I am so thankful for Holy Spirit keeping me alive through Fresh Manna. I love Fresh Manna.
