Lyrics Johnny Cash

Johnny Cash

Redemption

Am

1. From the hands it came down

Dm

From the side it came down

From the feet it came down

Am

And ran to the ground

Am

Between heaven and hell

Dm

A teardrop fell

In the deep crimson dew

Am

The tree of life grew

R: 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

Am

And were redeemed by the blood

2. 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

R: And the blood gave life...

3. 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

R: And the blood gave life...

Am

4. From his hands it came down

Dm

From his side it came down

From his feet it came down

Am

And ran to the ground
