Redemption

[Intro with piano mandolin and cowbell playing like church bells ringing]

[Verse 1]
He struggles to get out of their bed,
Hairs a mess and eyes bloodshot red,
There's just enough time for a shower,
With his promise he has to keep her,
That he'll be there sunday morning, 
Beside her praising the lord,
The preacher's looking at him,
Like he knows all the things he did, 

[Chorus with backing harmonies]
The choir sings praise the lord,
Then hallelujah, 
Preacher's spreading the word,
He's your only saviour, 
From temptation!!!!!!,
To REDEMPTION!!!!!!!, 

[Verse 2]
He spent last night in a smokey bar,
Drinking what she calls devil's liquor,
He'll be playing billiards and darts, 
Gambling on a losing hand of cards,
From friends that are a bad influence, 
To a sunday morning confession, 
She can now no longer hide,
That he still has a wild side,

[Chorus with backing harmonies]
The choir sings praise the lord,
Then hallelujah, 
Preacher's spreading the word,
He's your only saviour, 
From temptation!!!!!!,
To REDEMPTION!!!!!!!,

[Instrumental break with guitar riffs pedal steel guitar fiddle mandolin piano]

[Bridge]
Now she's giving him a choice, 
It's either me or it's the boys,
He knows he's been playing the part,
Of the one who's breaking her heart,
Another broken promise of change, 
She says let Jesus lead the way, 
From this empty hole of darkness,
To his light full of joy and happiness,

[Chorus with backing harmonies]
The choir sings praise the lord,
Then hallelujah, 
Preacher's spreading the word,
He's your only saviour, 
From temptation!!!!!!,
To REDEMPTION!!!!!!!, 

[Fade to end with cowbell playing like church bells ringing]
[Spoken word]
As we give praise to our saviour, 
That he leads us from the temptation, 
To the mighty path of redemption, 
For he's the only path you shall follow, 
Amen.
