[Tenor:]
There is a song down in my heart
Down in my soul
One that I and only I could ever know
A song that, that even the angels cannot sing
Oooh I, ooh I have been redeemed
Oooh I, ooh I have been redeemed

[Soprano:]
When I was drifted like a ship without a sail
Your love drew me
Your blood saved me
Now I must sail
How you washed my sins away
And you changed my name
Oooh I, ooh I have been redeemed
Ooh I,

[ALL:]
Oooh I have been redeemed

[Bridge:]
Jesus paid the price
Jesus sacrificed all
Jesus, gave his life
[Repeat by section and modulation]

Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus
Oooh Jesus
Gave his life
[Repeat]

[Alto & Soprano]
Oooh I, ooh I have been redeemed
Oooh I,

[ALL:]
Oooh I have been redeemed
