If you told me of your deepest sin would you fear I’d despise you? Will you trust me, let me in? Do you think I don’t wish to know everything about you? Would the truth be such a blow? Don’t you think I might suspect the truth you think you’ve hidden? You fear you’ll lose my respect, that you’ll become the unforgiven. From the deepest depths of hell even you can crawl to earth. I’m here to hear what you can tell and to tell you of your worth. There’s a way to wash the stain out of your broken soul. To seek redemption, heal the pain. To make amends should be your goal. Give me a chance to be the one who can see that you have grown. That you are more than your worst day and you don’t have to be alone. Some of us can see when someone truly seeks redemption. Who seeks it not for sympathy but for truth and honesty.

Redemption
If you told me of your deepest sin would you fear I’d despise you? Will you trust me, let me in? Do you think I don’t wish to know everything about you? Would the truth be such a blow? Don’t you think I might suspect the truth you think you’ve hidden? You fear you’ll lose my respect, that you’ll become the unforgiven. From the deepest depths of hell even you can crawl to earth. I’m here to hear what you can tell and to tell you of your worth. There’s a way to wash the stain out of your broken soul. To seek redemption, heal the pain. To make amends should be your goal. Give me a chance to be the one who can see that you have grown. That you are more than your worst day and you don’t have to be alone. Some of us can see when someone truly seeks redemption. Who seeks it not for sympathy but for truth and honesty.
