The Redeemed

From Linda Martin:
Have you "heard" this chorus before? Isaiah 35:10 fits the verse of Isaiah 51:11 "Therefore the redeemed of the Lord shall return, and come with singing unto Zion; and everlasting joy shall be upon their head: they shall obtain gladness and joy; and sorrow and mourning shall flee away."

Song called: THEREFORE THE REDEEMED

Therefore the redeemed of the Lord shall return
And come with singing unto Zion
And everlasting joy shall be upon their head.
Therefore the redeemed of the Lord shall return
And come with singing unto Zion
And everlasting joy shall be upon their head.

They shall obtain gladness and joy
And sorrow and mourning shall flee away.
Therefore the redeemed of the Lord shall return
And come with singing unto Zion
And everlasting joy shall be upon their head.
Ruth Lake copyright 1972 Scripture in song.

The future prophecy from Isaiah 35:1-10 NIV 'Joy of the Redeemed' people from all over the world will come to Zion singing with joy that our King, the Messiah -- Jesus Christ will reign forever and ever and we shall see the glory of the Lord.

What is redeem? It means buy back; set free; regain what we have lost; deliver from bondage; and liberate. In Old Testament, God has brought back His people from bondage. In New Testament, Christ has bought us back to Him through His Blood. That is redeemed. The Bible talked a lot about the "Redeemed."

So let 'the Redeemed People' sing unto the Lord today!
