Promise of Redemption Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Is this really how I'm gonna start?
Consuming these changes
Pulls the strings right off our hearts
But you are not alone
We are with you
No, you are not alone
We fight with you
I got to say that you'll be alright
You're gonna make it out alive
You got to say that you'll be alright
We're gonna make it out alive
The streets where we grew up illuminate the night
Like a brief declaration to rid the darkness from your life
My sister dear, let's make it clear
Can't give in to fear
You'll be alright
'Cause you are not alone
I am with you
No, you are not alone
I'll fight with you
You got to say that you'll be alright
You're gonna make it out alive
You got to say that you'll be alright
You're gonna make it out alive
With each step you take
I'll follow your footsteps
So that I can catch you if you fall
I'll bear the weight of all the pain
You know if I could I would take it all
(You got to say that you'll be alright)
'Cause you are not alone
We are with you
No, you are not alone
We fight with you
I got to say that you'll be alright
You're gonna make it out alive
You got to say that you'll be alright
You're gonna make it out alive
You got to say that you'll be alright
You're gonna make it out alive
You got to say that you'll be alright
(You know if I could I would take it all)
You got to say that you'll be alright
(Take it all)
You got to say that you'll be alright
(Take it all)
Rid the darkness from your life
(Catch you if you fall)
Rid the darkness from your life
(Catch you if you fall)
You're gonna make it out alive
The Promise of Redemption's song Footsteps tells a story about facing difficult changes and finding the courage to overcome fear. The artist questions whether this really is the new year and reflects on the challenges that come with changes. How can we adapt to new circumstances while remaining true to ourselves and our values? The song offers an answer: we are not alone. We have friends, siblings, and partners who will walk with us, who will bear the weight of pain, who will catch us if we fall.
The chorus repeats a message of hope and determination: "You got to say that you'll be alright / You're gonna make it out alive." These lines affirm that we have the power to survive, so long as we don't lose sight of our own strength and the support of those who love us. The second verse reinforces this message by referencing childhood memories--"the streets where we grew up illuminate the night"--and the bond between siblings--"My sister dear, let's make it clear / Can't give in to fear." The song ends with a final plea to "rid the darkness from your life" and a reminder that we are never alone.
Overall, Footsteps is a song that encourages listeners to face challenges with bravery and vulnerability. It reminds us that we are part of a community of loved ones who will always have our backs. Through its poignant lyrics and simple acoustic sound, the Promise of Redemption offers a gentle yet powerful message of hope.

Take it from an old man who has sung in quartets most of his nearly 79 years. You are among the best I ever heard. But remember this, stay in the Word, pray daily, and decide to be a servant who emulates the one who said He “did not come in to the world to be served, but to serve.” (Matthew 20:28 and Mark 10:45) May God bless you.

I am one of the biggest Redeemed Quartet's music fans. I would like the whole world to hear their music. If you are blessed by their music, I would encourage you to push the thumbs up just under the Redeemed Quartet logo. Then if you could write a comment to the Quartet like so many others already do. I have studied how the algorithms work and the more likes on the video and the more comments---the more their music will show up for non-believers to hear! Let's help the Quartet get this encouraging and Gospel filled music out to this lost world! Lord Bless you all!!!!

Men that dress like men! Hallelujah! 👍

This four young men here have a special gift from God, that I hope you don't loose it. Don't let jealousy get between any one of you, as it will tear you apart, as it has many, many groups. Also, don't get sucked in to the Gaither money machine, as it breeds vanity and the wrong motive. It's not about the money, but the souls you are touching for the Lord.
@SoupisSoupywithcrackers
Amen!!!
