Redemption Rewrote My Story
Transformative Tale: How Redemption Rewrote My Narrative
Lyrics
I was the author
I took control and responsibility for my own life.
Of my own story
I was the one shaping the narrative of my life.
Catastrophe holding a pen
I was in a state of disaster, influencing my fate with my actions.
Without something changing
If I didn't make changes, my life would repeat the same mistakes.
I'd write the same scene all over again
Without intervention, I would recreate undesirable situations.
Somehow the wrong road
I found myself on the wrong path.
Had such a stronghold
The wrong choices had a strong influence on me.
Though I had control of the wheel
Despite having control, I was on a detrimental course.
I had to decide how much more of my life
I had to decide how much of my life I would let these choices steal.
I'd let it steal
I needed to take control and prevent further loss.
I couldn't live this chapter
I couldn't continue with the current phase of my life.
Even one more minute
Every moment was unbearable; change was necessary.
Cause I knew I had to have a better
I knew I needed a better outcome than my troubled beginning.
End than my beginning
I sought improvement as the hands of God were at work.
As the hands of God were turning
God's intervention was turning back time.
Back the hands of time
Symbolic of God's sacrifice, erasing past mistakes.
His blood poured out as mercy
Christ's blood served as mercy, wiping away all transgressions.
Erasing every line
Each page of my life witnessed regret being replaced by glory.
Now page by page I'm witnessing
I am now observing a transformation, with regret replaced by honor.
Regret replaced by glory
Redemption has rewritten the narrative of my life.
Redemption rewrote my story
I appreciate how the author (God) reshaped my life's trajectory.
I love the way the author turned around the storyline
Expressing admiration for the positive turn of events in the story.
I love the way the Son of God rights it every time
Acknowledging the consistent positive influence of the Son of God.
I love the chapter where the grave sees everlasting life
Grateful for the part of the story where life triumphs over death.
I love how He rescued my eternity
Appreciation for how God saved the speaker's eternal destiny.
When I gave Him the pen
A symbolic act of surrendering control to God.
I love the way the author turned around the storyline
Reiterating appreciation for God's transformative role in the story.
I love the way the Son of God rights it every time
Continued admiration for the Son of God's positive influence.
I love the chapter where the grave sees everlasting life
Highlighting the pivotal chapter where life conquers death.
I love how He rescued my eternity
Gratitude for God's intervention in securing eternal well-being.
When I gave Him the pen
Reaffirmation of gratitude for surrendering control to God.
I love how He rescued my eternity
Emphasizing the transformative impact of surrendering to God.
When I gave Him the pen
Repetition of the acknowledgment of surrendering control to God.
As the hands of God were turning
Reiterating the idea of God turning back time for positive change.
Back the hands of time
Recalling the symbolic act of God reversing past mistakes.
His blood poured out as mercy
Reflecting on Christ's sacrifice as a merciful act erasing transgressions.
Erasing every line
Emphasizing the cleansing power of Christ's blood.
Now page by page I'm witnessing
Witnessing a transformation where regret is replaced by honor.

Experiencing a positive change with regret replaced by glory.
