He gave me a ransom Of all the debts I owe As He gave me a smile He beamed Saying "Don't forget Me"

He gave me a ransom He paid the debts I owe As He gave me a smile He beamed Saying "Remember Me"

The ransom I would keep Though the debts is rid, off It tells the love of him who paid The debts on my behalf

I behold and I smiled I look again, I wept His love's testimony for me For aye I'll cherish it

'Tis no more a ransom But it's a remembrance That all the burden of my debts Emmanuel ransomed
