My Redeemer Lives

Scars mark my story like a map of all my fights

Sleepless nights and tear-soaked arms wrestling with the light

Skin turned to dust, my strength turned to sand

But I still hear a whisper saying, Son, take My hand

I know my Redeemer lives, I know He stands so true

When my breath runs out and my bones break through

When the grave calls out and the sky turns black

I know my Redeemer lives, He's gonna bring me back

Oh, oh, oh

I've been a wanderer in deserts, lost in my own mind

Built altars out of heartbreak, thought I was left behind

But in the ruins quiet, I feel His thunder roll

The same hands that shaped the stars keep guard over my soul

I know my Redeemer lives, I know He stands so true

When my breath runs out and my bones break through

When the grave calls out and the sky turns black

I know my Redeemer lives, He's gonna bring me back

Oh, oh, oh, oh

I've seen good men crumble, I've seen the mighty fall

I felt the empty silence echo down these halls

But even when my last tear falls like a stone in the sea

I'll rise in that morning light, He'll be waiting for me

I know my Redeemer lives, I know He stands so true

When my breath runs out and my bones break through

When the grave calls out and the sky turns black

I know my Redeemer lives, He's gonna bring me back

Oh, oh, oh

When the trumpet sounds and the sky splits wide

I'll run to that mercy, leave my dust behind

Ain't no chain or coffin keeping me down

My Redeemer lives that's my battle sound

I know my Redeemer lives, I know He stands so true

When my breath runs out and my bones break through

When the grave calls out and the sky turns black

I know my Redeemer lives, He's gonna bring me back
