Redemption Recompense

Richard Groff 1957 (Pottstown, Pa.)



You shed your blood for the sake of the Truth;
You died while you were still a youth.
But you’ll be coming back again.
And this time you will bring your Friend.

The One who saved you from your plight;
The One who always does what’s right!

The Christ of God; that’s Jesus’ fame.
And you will rule in Jesus’ name;
With iron rod you’ll rule the earth.
He’ll be the last with Jesus first!

Thank God you came to save me!
