Redemptions Price

I once was of that darkness, the turmoil from within,
anger, hurt, strife and wrath, the things made of sin.
 How these things, destroys the heart you see,
the darkness is, as it does, using both you and me.
There is a price to those, who has been redeemed it’s true,
the searching of the truth, about the darkness, in me and you .
 Destruction comes in darkness, it’s death to mankind,
warring Angels of our Lord, the chains they unbind.
 To set free the captive, for it’s from the heart we live,
the price of our redemption, to others, life we give.
 For life gives life, breath for breath you see,
living in the shadows, spreads death, to you and me.
