Claimed and Redeemed

Revelation 5:9 New International Version (NIV)

9 And they sang a new song, saying:

“You are worthy to take the scroll

    and to open its seals,

because you were slain,

    and with your blood you purchased for God

    persons from every tribe and language and people and nation.

Psalm 107:1-3 New International Version (NIV)

BOOK V

Psalms 107–150

Psalm 107

1 Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good;

    his love endures forever.

2 Let the redeemed of the Lord tell their story—

    those he redeemed from the hand of the foe,

3 those he gathered from the lands,

    from east and west, from north and south.[a]

1 Peter 1:12 New International Version (NIV)

12 It was revealed to them that they were not serving themselves but you, when they spoke of the things that have now been told you by those who have preached the gospel to you by the Holy Spirit sent from heaven. Even angels long to look into these things.

I've been enjoying songs form Casting Crown's new album, "The Very Next Thing."  I've also tried uploading the one, "Song That the Angels Can't Sing;" but, because of copyright restrictions, I'm not sure how many can view that video.  Still, I enjoyed putting the video together.  There are songs that the angels can't sing.  They have not been redeemed and they do not share in that inheritance. They do not hold the copyright!  No, amazing grace how sweet the sound that saved a wretch like me, for them!  Only we wretches, bought with a price, saved by the blood of the lamb, can sing of such a glorious salvation. I do have a song I love to sing, since I have been redeemed!
