Redeem: 31

Hey, it's time, you know?
To lay down the blame.

There are roots to the damage,
the darkness has friends;
none of this can we negate.

But I'm just looking at what we have left,
and I see more waiting beyond this place.

And the moment sitting in front of my face
is not what will so&so do to take us yonder...
It's us.

Those were our years of suffering dark,
purpose working but hard to find.
And these are our days of walking in joy,
in hope, in peace, salvation relief.

But listen to what I believe to be true:
There will be suffering again for us, not far,
and to lay the blame just will not do.
I will need you to be secure yes sure,
standing in gospel proof.

The foundation we allow let laid today
determines the Light of then.

[redeem, verb: to free from what distresses or harms; to release from blame or debt; to regain possession or recover ownership; 
to convert, restore, atone; to save]
