Redeemer Redeemed
By Susie Hale and Susan Slade

The Baby lovingly placed in a wooden manger
Would someday die on a cross made of wood.
Jesus was born to be our Redeemer
Which meant He must do everything as He should.
In order to be the spotless Lamb of God
He must obey every point of the Law.
So, Mary and Joseph brought two shekels of silver
To redeem the Baby they had laid on the straw.
Our Redeemer as firstborn had to be redeemed
and his mother purified by offering two doves.
Mary could not even afford a spotless lamb
When presenting the Lamb of our Father’s love.
The parents God chose to raise His Son
Fulfilled all that the Law demanded.
Mary and Joseph obeyed Gabriel’s message,
Doing
everything the Lord commanded.
