Redemption


 

He showed me all the signs.

He told me how it felt.

He said that there were consequences. 

He told me to learn from his mistakes

His redemption came in the form of a pill.

 

They showed me how to escape.

They told me I'd be fine. 

They said that there wouldn't be consequences

They told me it wasn't a mistake.

My redemption came in the form a pill.

 

I showed Dad my new life.

I told him I'd been set free. 

I said that we have been forgiven.

I told him it was a new mercy.

Our redemption comes in the form of a Savior.
