57. Redemption Ground.

1 I'm standing on redemption ground,
Christ's holy place I here have found;
Forevermore my rest shall be
Beneath the cross of Calvary.

Chorus:
I'm standing on redemption ground,
Christ's holy place I here have found;
Forevermore my rest shall be
Beneath the cross of Calvary.

2 In vain the search o'er ev'ry land,
All earthly hope is sinking sand;
The only Rock of faith is found
In Christ the Lord's redemption ground. [Chorus]

3 Redemption's pow'r is in my soul,
For Jesus Christ hath made me whole;
Since He alone can souls redeem
Redeeming love shall be my theme. [Chorus]

4 And when the end of life has come,
The angel bands will bear me home;
In heav'n above it will be found
I'm standing on redemption ground. [Chorus]
