you have redeemed my soul...

you have redeemed my soul
from the pit of emptiness
you have redeemed my soul
from death

i was a hungry child
i was a dried up river
i was a burned out forest
and no one could do anything for me

but you put food in my body
water in my dry bed
and to my blackened branches
you brought the spring time green of new life

and nothing is impossible for you

-waterdeep

i first heard this song from a friend of mine when she was going through a really hard time
i have loved it ever since
it is simple but speaks volumes at the same time
thank you Jesus for your redemption
