There Is A Redeemer by Keith Green with Lyrics

There Is A Redeemer sung by Keith Green from the album, O Lord You're Beautiful.

Keith Gordon Green (October 21, 1953 -- July 28, 1982) was an American gospel singer, songwriter, musician, and Contemporary Christian Music artist originally from Sheepshead Bay, Brooklyn, New York. Green is also known for numerous popular modern hymns, including "O Lord, You're Beautiful" and "There Is A Redeemer."

Keith had a Jewish heritage and was raised in Christian Science. He grew up reading the New Testament and called the mixture of being Jewish and learning about Jesus "an odd combination" that left him open minded but deeply unsatisfied. He began doing drugs and became interested in eastern mysticism and "free love." After experiencing what Green described as a "bad trip," he abandoned drug use and became interested in philosophy and theology. Green later stated, however, that in the midst of his skepticism, he felt that God "broke through [his] calloused heart," and he became a follower of Jesus, a Jewish believer in Jesus the Messiah. Soon afterward, Keith's wife Melody, whom he had married in 1973 and was also Jewish, also became a Jewish believer in Jesus. It was during this time that the newlyweds became involved with the Vineyard Christian Fellowship in Southern California, although they never forsook their Jewish roots or identity as Jews.

Along with eleven others, Keith Green died on July 28, 1982, when the Cessna 414 leased by Last Days Ministries crashed after takeoff from the private airstrip located on the LDM property. The small two-engine plane was carrying eleven passengers and the pilot, Don Burmeister for an aerial tour[12] of the LDM property and the surrounding area. Green and two of his children, three year old Josiah and two year old Bethany, were on board the plane, along with visiting missionaries John and Dede Smalley and their six children.

Keith's music will live for as long as Jesus tarries.

I didn't realize he was Jewish. Nonetheless,it was nice to know because my Saviour was Jewish.I love my Redeemer.I will see my fellow Christians in heaven when my Father calls me home.

Most common usage of the word redeemer is when you clip a coupon out of the paper and take it to the store. The store redeems the coupon - buys it back. God has sent us a coupon to cover the cost of our sin. We take it to the throne of God and Jesus says, "My name is on that. I will cover it all. Paid in full. Would you like fries with that?"

No disrespect intended. We come for forgiveness and while we are there, not only does Jesus pay for it all, but He has so much more to offer.
