Redemption
A BROKEN LIFE AND UNFILLED DREAMSPAIN AND SORROW BECAME LIFE'S THEME.
EMPTY TIME AND EMPTY SPACE,
LIFE RUSHING BY AT A RAPID PACE.
LOOKING HERE AND LOOKING THERE
WHILE TIME EVAPORATES INTO THIN AIR.
A NEED TO SATISFY THESE DEEP DESIRES
FALSE PLEASURES DASHED AS TIME EXPIRES.
I LIVED IN DEATH BECAUSE OF SIN
OH WHEN, OH WHEN WILL LIVING BEGIN.
I HEAR A VOICE, IT BRINGS SUDDEN HOPE
A WORD SPOKEN AND THE DEAD AWOKE.
I SEE THE CROSS, I SEE THE CROWN
I SEE THE BLOOD UPON THE GROUND.
MY BURIAL CLOTHES HAVE BEEN FORSAKEN
JESUS APPEARED AND MY WORLD WAS SHAKEN.
SO NOW I AWAKEN TO A BRIGHT NEW DAY
ALL THINGS NEW, THE OLD HAS PASSED AWAY.
AT LAST, AT LAST, DEATH HAS BEEN DEFEATED
BECAUSE OF JESUS, ALL MY SINS ARE DELETED.
