1 Peter 1:18-19 Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation received by tradition from your fathers;
[19] But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot:
You and I stood under the judgment of God, for the Scripture says “… the soul that sinneth, it shall die” (Ezek. 18:4). God has never revoked that decree. (Romans 3:23).
Man has nothing to offer God for his own redemption.
Only the precious blood of Jesus Redeems those who believe on Him.
Redeemed

Redeemed, how I love to proclaim it! — Redeemed by the blood of the Lamb; — Redeemed through His infinite mercy, — His child, and forever, I am.
CHORUS:
Redeemed, redeemed, — Redeemed by the blood of the Lamb; — Redeemed, redeemed, — Redeemed by the blood of the Lamb;
I think of my blessed Redeemer, — I think of Him all the day long; — I sing, for I cannot be silent; — His love is the theme of my song.
I know I shall see in His beauty — The King in whose law I delight, — Who lovingly guardeth my footsteps — And giveth me songs in the night.
