(Part of a series singing through the hymnbook I grew up with: Great Hymns of the Faith)
1
Nor silver nor gold hath obtained my redemption,
Nor riches on earth could have saved my poor soul;
The blood of the cross is my only foundation,
The death of my Savior now maketh me whole.
CHORUS
I am redeemed but not with silver,
(I am redeemed, I’m redeemed but not with silver,)
I am bought but not with gold,
(I am bought, I am bought but not with gold,)
Bought with a price — the blood of Jesus,
(Bought with a price — the precious blood of Jesus,)
Precious price of love untold.
2
Nor silver nor gold hath obtained my redemption,
The guilt on my conscience too heavy had grown;
The blood of the cross is my only foundation,
The death of my Savior could only atone.
CHORUS
3
Nor silver nor gold hath obtained my redemption
The holy commandment forbade me draw near;
The blood of the cross is my only foundation,
The death of my Savior removeth my fear.
CHORUS
4
Nor silver nor gold hath obtained my redemption,
The way into heaven could not thus be bought;
The blood of the cross is my only foundation,
The death of my Savior redemption hath wrought.
CHORUS
