Redemption Poem
redemption
love lost and found
hope once bouyant seemingly drowned
baptized through the inferno
gold-forged now shines eternal
phoenix rising for the nations
stunning bird
and spotless silent lamb
in eternity the great I AM
yet baby clothes and baby cries
witnessed by Simeon and Anna’s eyes
Redeemer Savior Word
redemption song
chorus widely heard
some still don’t know the words
love sin sacrifice resurrection
unworthy – praise God for His affection
redemption
love lost and found
hope once bouyant seemingly drowned
baptized through the inferno
gold-forged now shines eternal
phoenix rising for the nations
stunning bird
and spotless silent lamb
in eternity the great I AM
yet baby clothes and baby cries
witnessed by Simeon and Anna’s eyes
Redeemer Savior Word
redemption song
chorus widely heard
some still don’t know the words
love sin sacrifice resurrection
unworthy – praise God for His affection
after all that I’ve done wrong
redemption
love
lost and found

Very cool poem. “Chorus widely heard.” Reminds me of Psalm 19. “The heavens declare the glory of God.”
