"Beautiful Redemption" lyrics - JOY WILLIAMS
I've had my forty days and forty nights at sea
I've had forty years in the wilderness, or so to speak
I've walked with sand from the ocean floor on my feet
To turn and say you left me
I'm a doubting Thomas needing to believe
I'm a perfumed sinner just like Magdalene
I am Judas kissing on your cheek, eager to deceive
I am all of these
[Chorus:]
I cry, Father, Father, forgive me
You say, Child, I already have
You are beautiful
Beautiful redemption
I'm the guilty thief that's hanging by your side
And my shame is dying with your sacrifice
And all my fears come crashing down as I look in your eyes
I see paradise
[Chorus:]
I cry, Father, Father, forgive me
You say, Child, I already have
You are beautiful
Beautiful redemption
You are beautiful
Beautiful redemption
[Bridge:]
Halle-Hallelujah (We all, we all, we all fall down)
Halle-Hallelujah (We all, we all, we all fall down)
Halle-Hallelujah (We all, we all, we all fall down)
Halle-Hallelujah (We all, we all, we all fall down)
[Outro:]
You are beautiful
Beautiful redemption
You are beautiful
Beautiful redemption
You are beautiful
You are beautiful
You are beautiful
Redemption
We all, we all, we all fall down
