Redemption Song
Adie Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Voice of mercy, breath of God
Life from life sustaining us
Earth below and skies above
Beautiful redemption's song

Melodies like morning rise
Darkness leaning toward the dawn
Into our sorrow sings the light
Beautiful redemption song

Hallelujah, love is come
Hallelujah, God with us
Hope restored and death undone
Beautiful redemption song
Beautiful redemption song

Weeping will not last the night
Nor will sadness be for long
Joy was born of sacrifice
Beautiful redemption song

Let the wounded come and see
Empty grave and lifted stone
Sinners saved and captives, free




Beautiful redemption song
Beautiful redemption song

Overall Meaning

The overarching theme of Adie's "Redemption Song" is the power of salvation and redemption through Jesus Christ. The opening lyrics, "Voice of mercy, breath of God / Life from life sustaining us / Earth below and skies above / Beautiful redemption's song," speak to the idea that Christ's sacrifice provides the very essence of life and sustains us all. The melody that follows, "Melodies like morning rise," is reminiscent of the morning sun rising and overcoming the darkness of night. In the same way, Christ's sacrifice overcomes the darkness of sin, as represented by the line, "Into our sorrow sings the light / Beautiful redemption song."


The chorus of the song brings hope and joy with the lines, "Hallelujah, love is come / Hallelujah, God with us / Hope restored and death undone / Beautiful redemption song." These lyrics speak to the truth that God's love is personified in Jesus, who came to earth to restore hope and undo the power of death through his sacrifice on the cross. The last stanza of the song speaks to the idea that anyone can experience the beauty of redemption through Christ's saving grace. "Let the wounded come and see / Empty grave and lifted stone / Sinners saved and captives, free / Beautiful redemption song" communicates the idea that Christ's salvation is available to everyone, regardless of their past mistakes or current struggles.
