Seems like all I can see was the struggle
Haunted by ghosts that lived in my past
Bound up in shackles of all my failures
Wondering how long is this gonna last
Then You look at this prisoner and say to me
“Son, stop fighting a fight that’s already been won”
I am redeemed, You set me free
So I’ll shake off these heavy chains
Wipe away every stain
Now I’m not who I used to be
I am redeemed… I’m redeemed
All my life I have been called unworthy
Named by the voice of my shame and regret
But when I hear You whisper “Child, lift up your head”
I remember, oh God, You’re not done with me yet
I don’t have to be the old man inside of me ’cause his day is long dead and gone
Because I’ve got a new name, a new life I’m not the same
And a hope that will carry me home
‘Cause I am redeemed
Thank God redeemed

Thank you, Tina. I needed to be reminded of this daily. Praise God for His goodness!
Oh, most definitely!
Tina, I’m thanking God along with you for my redemption! “Child, lift up your head!”
Our God is so merciful and forgiving. I love how he wants to always look out for our best. All we have to do is keep searching and believing.
oh, tina, this brought me to tears…and my knees! thank you for sharing your heart so transparently! praying for you! <3
I thank God for His redemptive work in all of us. Without the Holy Spirit, where would we be?

This is perfect for me during my difficult season. God is doing some pruning in my life. He is getting me ready for my better. Praise God, I have been redeemed.
