 Redemption
 Written by Johnny Cash
 Published by Song of Cash Inc. ASCAP

 From the hands it came down
 From the side it came down
 From the feet it came down
 And ran to the ground
 Between heaven and hell
 A teardrop fell
 In the deep crimson dew
 The tree of life grew

|And the blood gave life

|To the branches of the tree

|And the blood was the price

|That set the captives free

|And the numbers that came

|Through the fire and the flood

|Clung to the tree

|And were redeemed by the blood

 From the tree streamed a light
 That started the fight
 'Round the tree grew a vine
 On whose fruit I could dine
 My old friend Lucifer came
 Fought to keep me in chains
 But I saw through the tricks
 Of six-sixty-six

 {chorus}

 From his hands it came down
 From his side it came down
 From his feet it came down
 And ran to the ground
 And a small inner voice
 Said "You do have a choice."
 The vine engrafted me
 And I clung to the tree

 {chorus}

 From his hands it came down
 From his side it came down
 From his feet it came down
 And ran to the ground
