Leviticus 25:48‑49
TO redeem ourselves was impossible. We were poor bankrupt sinners, sold under judgment. But One came from heaven to be a Kinsman-Redeemer, One who, though Lord of all, is not ashamed to call us brethren. He has redeemed us to God by His own most precious blood, having satisfied every claim that was against us and not only paid all our debt but provided for all our future.
“My Redeemer! Oh what beauties
In that lowly name appear!
None but Jesus In His glories
Shall the honored title wear.
My Redeemer!
Oh, how sweet Thy name to bear!
Sunk in ruin, sin and misery,
Bound by Satan’s captive chain,
Guided by his artful treachery,
Hurrying on to endless pain,
My Redeemer!
Thou didst my redemption gain!”
