a view through annie's eyes

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 in needing to believe
I’m a perfumed sinner just like Magdalene
I’m Judas kissing on your cheek eager to decieve
I am all of these

Chorus

I cry, Father, Father, forgive me
You say, Child, I already have
You are beautiful
Beautiful Redemption
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

Hallelujah (we all, we all, we all fall down)
Hallelujah (we all, we all, we all fall down)
Hallelujah (we all, we all, we all fall down)
Hallelujah (we all, we all, we all fall down)

You are beautiful
Beautiful Redemption
You are Beautiful
Beautiful Redemption
