Beautiful Redemption - 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

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

I cry, Father, Father, forgive me

You say, Child, I already have

You are beautiful

Beautiful redemption

You are beautiful

Beautiful redemption

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)

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
