You Are My Redeemer

Verse 1
At the city gate, a deal was made,
A price was paid, the debt outweighed.
Boaz stood, a righteous man,
Redeeming love, unfolding plan.

Through kindness and a sacred vow,
A broken past redeemed somehow.

Pre-Chorus
Oh, Redeemer, You claim what’s lost,
Through love unmeasured, at any cost.
Restoring hearts, You make them new,
Through the ages, Your promise true.

Chorus
Oh, sing the song of redemption’s grace,
Where mercy dwells and love takes place.
In Bethlehem, a story began,
A glimpse of Christ, God’s perfect plan.

Verse 2
A child was born to carry the line,
From Ruth’s devotion, God’s design.
Obed came, the seed of light,
In David’s house, a King in sight.

Through this union, hope would rise,
To save the world, through sacrifice.

Pre-Chorus
Oh, Redeemer, You claim what’s lost,
Through love unmeasured, at any cost.
Restoring hearts, You make them new,
Through the ages, Your promise true.

Chorus
Oh, sing the song of redemption’s grace,
Where mercy dwells and love takes place.
In Bethlehem, a story began,
A glimpse of Christ, God’s perfect plan.

Bridge
The hands of God weave threads so fine,
Through lives surrendered, a love divine.
From fields of Moab to a throne above,
Ruth’s faith reflects the Savior’s love.

O Lord, Your ways, we cannot see,
But through it all, You’re redeeming me.

Outro
Now I stand in awe of grace,
Redeemed and held in love’s embrace.
From Boaz to Christ, the lineage flows,
Through Ruth’s surrender, God’s story grows.

So I will sing, with all I am,
Redeemer’s love, the great “I Am.”
Through every heartache, through every wrong,
Forever lifted by Redeemer’s song.
