Ransom
Ransom of Redemption: Unveiling the Profound Message in Charlie Hall's Song
Lyrics
At the dawn of human race
Reflects on the beginning of human existence.
We hid away and lost sight of Your face
Describes a period of separation from the divine.
So much silence we could not behave
Highlights a time of silence and moral deviation.
Until the day that ransom came
Anticipates the transformative moment when redemption arrives.
Oh, the day that ransom came
Reiterates the significant day of redemption.
You were the prophet with healing in Your wings
Attributes healing qualities to a prophetic figure.
Returning hearts of the children to the Father
Describes the restoration of the connection between children and the divine.
Returning life and sight to the sons and daughters
Emphasizes the return of life and sight to the offspring.
We dreamed of peace
Addresses the human desire for peace.
While our hands were making weapons
Contrasts the pursuit of peace with the creation of destructive weapons.
We dreamed of freedom
Highlights the paradox of seeking freedom while imprisoning oneself.
While we locked ourselves in prison
Illustrates the internal conflict and contradiction.
Our eyes were looking and our hearts were waiting
Expresses a longing for change and a savior.
For the One with the keys to our changing
Anticipates a figure with the power to bring about transformation.
Oh, the day that ransom came
Reiterates the importance of the redemptive day.
You were the prophet with healing in Your wings
Attributes healing qualities to the prophetic figure once again.
Returning hearts of the children to the Father
Describes the restoration of the familial connection with the divine.
Returning life and sight to the sons and daughters
Reiterates the return of life and sight to the offspring.
Come and shake our hearts awake
Repeatedly calls for a spiritual awakening.
Come and shake our hearts awake
-Come and shake our hearts awake
-Come and shake our hearts awake
-Come and shake our hearts awake
-Come and shake our hearts awake
-Oh, the day that ransom came
Recalls the day of redemption once more.
You were the prophet with healing in Your wings
Attributes healing qualities to the prophetic figure for the final time.
Returning hearts of the children to the Father
Restates the restoration of the familial connection with the divine.
Returning life and sight to the sons and daughters
Reiterates the return of life and sight to the offspring as a concluding theme.
Oh, the day that ransom came
Final reflection on the significance of the redemptive day.
You were the prophet with healing in Your wings
Final attribution of healing qualities to the prophetic figure.
Returning hearts of the children to the Father
Final description of the restored familial connection with the divine.
Returning life and sight to the sons and daughters
Final emphasis on the return of life and sight to the offspring.
