Lyics

Ye ransom'd sinners, hear,

The pris'ners of the Lord,

And wait till Christ appear,

According to his word:

Rejoice in hope, rejoice with me,

Rejoice in hope, rejoice with me;

We shall from our sins be free.



Let others hug their chains,

For sin and Satan plead,

And say, from sin's remains

They never can be freed:

Rejoice in hope, rejoice with me;

We shall from all our sins be free.



In God we put our trust;

If we our sins confess,

Faithful is he, and just,

From all unrighteousness

To cleanse us all, both you and me:

We shall from all our sins be free.



Surely in us the hope

Of glory shall appear;

Sinners, your heads lift up,

And see redemption near;

Again, I say, rejoice with me:

We shall from all our sins be free.
