Lyrics
Verse 1: Nor silver nor gold hath obtained my redemption, No riches of earth could have saved my poor soul; The blood of the cross is my only foundation, The death of my Savior now maketh me whole.
Verse 2: Nor silver nor gold hath obtained my redemption, The guilt on my conscience too heavy had grown; The blood of the cross is my only foundation, The death of my Savior could only atone.
Verse 3: Nor silver nor gold hath obtained my redemption, the holy commandment forbade me draw near; The blood of the cross is my only foundation, the death of my Savior removeth my fear.
Verse 4: Nor silver nor gold hath obtained my redemption, The way into heaven could not thus be bought; The blood of the cross is my only foundation, the death of my Savior redemption hath wrought.
Chorus: I am redeemed, but not with silver, I am bought, but not with gold; Bought with a price— the blood of Jesus, Precious price of love untold.
