Summer Song

A few days before Luke and I ventured our way down to Haiti, I was driving around in mom's car listening to her Selah CD when this song came on. I do not know why (obviously the Holy Spirit), but this song really impacted me. At first it reminded me of the cost of my freedom, and slavery to sin, but also brought to light that His love and freedom are universal!

The last two verses:
(verse 3)
I will sing of my Redeemer
He who bore my cross, my curse
Came a servant, chose to suffer
Lifted up and cast from earth

(verse 4)
I will sing of my Redeemer
Tell about the grace I’ve known
Here on earth with those forgiven
And one day around His throne

Really sums the whole song up. Luke and I are here in Haiti to proclaim God's love, and to help the Haitians with the tools God has instilled in us. We are also open and searching for what God wants us to learn from our trip here and from these amazing people! One day we will all be around God's throne and it won't matter how rich or poor we are, nor the color of our skin........It's all about Him, and how we fulfill our mission here on earth...that is what it is all about!


I Will Sing of My Redeemer

(verse 1)
I will sing of my Redeemer
He who took the nails for me
I’ve been purchased, I’ve been pardoned
Bound to Him I’m truly free

(verse 2)
I will sing of my Redeemer
How He sought me while a slave
Loosed me from the curse of sin and
From the power of the grave

(chorus)
I will sing of my Redeemer
Lift my voice to praise my Lord
Ransomed by His blood and mercy
I am His forevermore

(verse 3)
I will sing of my Redeemer
He who bore my cross, my curse
Came a servant, chose to suffer
Lifted up and cast from earth

(verse 4)
I will sing of my Redeemer
Tell about the grace I’ve known
Here on earth with those forgiven
And one day around His throne
