Rest your heart in the security of your salvation with these peaceful instrumental renditions of “Redeemed, How I Love to Proclaim It.” Written by the prolific hymnwriter Fanny Crosby, this beautiful anthem celebrates the freedom, joy, and deep spiritual peace that comes from being bought back by the blood of the Lamb. Whether you are using these tracks for personal prayer, morning devotion, or a background accompaniment for biblical meditation, let the music anchor your soul in the truth that you are His child forever.
The Scriptural Foundation
The lyrics of this vibrant hymn are built upon foundational biblical declarations of identity, ransom, and divine protection:
Psalm 107:2: “Let the redeemed of the Lord say so, whom He has redeemed from the hand of the enemy.”
1 Peter 1:18-19: Reminding us that we were not redeemed with corruptible things like silver or gold, but with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot.
Psalm 42:8: Celebrating the intimate assurance that the Lord “giveth me songs in the night.”
Historical Context & Origin
First published in 1882, “Redeemed, How I Love to Proclaim It” features text by the legendary Fanny J. Crosby and a melodic musical setting by William J. Kirkpatrick. Despite losing her sight in infancy, Fanny Crosby authored over 8,000 hymns, viewing her physical blindness as a unique blessing that allowed her to see spiritual truths with unparalleled clarity.
This specific hymn captures the essence of her theology—an unshakeable happiness in Jesus, an awareness of the light of His continual presence, and a longing for the “bright mansion” waiting in eternity. For over a century, Kirkpatrick’s joyful rhythmic framework has helped believers worldwide loudly proclaim their redemption.

Redeemed, how I love to proclaim it!
Redeemed by the blood of the Lamb;

Redeemed by the blood of the Lamb;

Redeemed, and so happy in Jesus,
No language my rapture can tell;
I know that the light of His presence
With me doth continually dwell.

The King in whose law I delight,
Who lovingly guardeth my footsteps,
And giveth me songs in the night.

In yonder bright mansion for me,
And soon with the spirits made perfect,
At home with the Lord I shall be.
