Redemptive Love

Born a sinner, baptize me in our love
Cleanse my soul with your sweet words
Each kiss a divine taste from above
In your arms I’ll find salvation 
That is if I’m worth saving
I’m the antithesis of saintly 
But I swear I’m a storm worth braving
Drench me in your holy waters
Show me I can be redeemed
The peace in your embrace
Brings more joy than I had dreamed
