This hymn has a unique tune.

 
 1 

Nor silver nor gold hath obtained my redemption;

No riches of earth could have saved my poor soul.

The blood of the cross is my only foundation;

The death of my Savior now maketh me whole.

 

I am redeemed, but not with silver;

I am bought, but not with gold;

Bought with a price — the blood of Jesus,

Precious price of love untold.

 
 2 

Nor silver nor gold hath obtained my redemption;

The guilt on my conscience too heavy had grown.

The blood of the cross is my only foundation;

The death of my Savior I only can own.

 

I am redeemed, but not with silver;

I am bought, but not with gold;

Bought with a price — the blood of Jesus,

Precious price of love untold.

 
 3 

Nor silver nor gold hath obtained my redemption;

The holy commandment forbade me draw near.

The blood of the cross is my only foundation;

The death of my Savior removeth my fear.

 

I am redeemed, but not with silver;

I am bought, but not with gold;

Bought with a price — the blood of Jesus,

Precious price of love untold.

 
 4 

Nor silver nor gold hath obtained my redemption;

The way to God's kingdom could not thus be bought.

The blood of the cross is my only foundation;

The death of my Savior redemption hath wrought.

 

I am redeemed, but not with silver;

I am bought, but not with gold;

Bought with a price — the blood of Jesus,

Precious price of love untold.
