These sins are mine I have to live with
Although my sins are forgiven
My thoughts are clear
And I’m at peace
Although my crime remains with me
I served my time
I’ve served it well
I’ve gained piece of mind
And peace with self
Now I shall cry tears of joy
Tears of peace and tears of pride
Tears of pain and celebration
Tears of salvation
Tears of redemption
Through the years I was wrong
I express my guilt through my songs
The life I lead has not been forgotten
Tasted the apple that was rotten
Now I must go face my sentence
I pay for my sins through repentance
And I shall cry tears of joy
Tears of peace and tears of pride
Tears of pain and celebration
Tears of salvation
Tears of redemption
Redemption
Redemption
Redemption
And I shall cry tears of joy
Tears of peace and tears of pride
Tears of pain and celebration
Tears of salvation
Tears of redemption
