Songs of Redeeming Love: Please Contribute

Last week, I linked to one of my favorite hymns about redeeming love, "I Stand All Amazed".  Today, I want to link to three other songs I love.  I know the first one isn't about Jesus, directly, but I love the song and its message - and it's easy to listen to it in reference to the Redeemer of the World.

I hope you like and are moved by these songs as much as I am. 

"We All Need Saving" (Jon McLaughlin)








"Nearer, My God, to Thee" (Vocal Point)







"Oh, Holy Night" - David Archuleta







Please share your favorite songs of redeeming love - with a url or link, if possible.  At least, share the titles - and the lyrics, if you know them.

That Vocal Point arrangement of Nearer My God to Thee is stunning.

Here are a couple of my favorites:

Miserere:

Pie Jesu (lyrics below)

Merciful Jesus,
Who takes away the sins of the world,

Lamb of God,
Who takes away the sins of the world,
Grant them rest
Everlasting.

"How Great Thou Art"

But my favorite is "All Creatures of Our God and King".

Thanks L-dG, Matthew and SR. Those are beautiful songs - and "stunning" is a great description of the Vocal Point arrangement.
