Redemption Season

Those voices in your head saying that you won't win this war
But knowing by who you're led you know that ain't the score
Feeling a bit bruised and beaten maybe even a little defeated
In those mistakes you're repeating leaving you a bit depleted

Maybe you feel that you have hit your limit but it's not over yet
Maybe you feel like wanting to quit, remember it's not over yet
Even in the thinking that you are finished you keep up the fight 
His Glory can never be diminished, the only thing in your sight

Maybe you thought that the past was the game, set and match 
But the Lord would never cast but instead He would try to catch
Long live the young at heart and blessed be those who are meek
Pitch in and do your part as would do the One that you so seek

Remember it's not over yet, keep running until the race is done
Keeping your eyes firmly set upon the Father and His only Son
Now out of that dark and into His Light with Hope still on the rise
For when the Lord is in your sight there's no need to believe lies
 

 Based on the song, "It's not over yet" by For King and Country. 
Great Song!!!

Your verses remind me of flannerism, a style of traveling through history by crossing under arcades bearing deep significance and rich symbols like in Benjamin Walter. Brave rhymes, and long breath rhythms of difficult virtuosity around symbols of Light and Hope. We rest in the hands of Light.
