Power To Redeem
Lauren Daigle Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And you make it beautiful
When love floods in
We're restored forever more
With breath that brings the dead to life
With words that pierce the dark with light
Only by the blood are we set free.
And nail it to a tree You alone
Hold the power to redeem.
No guilt competes
With innocence crucified
No grave can hold what your grace has justified
With breath that brings the dead to life
With words that pierce the dark with light
Only by the blood are we set free.
With mercy strong to carry shame
And nail it to a tree you alone
Hold the power to redeem
Rejoice oh child of God
Lift your eyes to see
With every morning light
Again we are redeemed
Rejoice oh child of God
Lift your eyes to see
With every morning light
Again we are redeemed
With breath it brings the dead to life
With words that pierce the dark with light
Only by the blood are we set free.
With mercy strong to carry shame
And nail it to a tree you alone
Hold the power to redeem.
Oh you alone, hold the power to redeem
Oh you alone, hold the power to redeem

The song reinforces a message of hope for believers, that God is still working in their lives through every trial and tribulation they might face.
The lyrics of the song suggest that there is no guilt that can compete with the innocence of Christ's sacrifice on the cross. No grave can hold what His grace has justified. The song is an encouragement to those who may be struggling with guilt or shame, to look to Jesus, who alone can carry such shame and nail it to the tree. The final verse of the song encourages believers to lift their eyes to see with every morning light, that we are redeemed again.
