Lyrics
1ST VERSE:
LIFE IS A MYSTERY
FROM THE BEGINNING
WHY DO I FEEL AS THOUGH
I NEED FORGIVING
GRANT MY SOUL RELEASE
EASE MY TROUBLED MIND
IN MY SEARCH FOR PEACE
(THAT'S) AS OLD AS TIME
2ND VERSE:
IS THERE A TESTAMENT
FOR THE CONFLICTED
SINS OF THE INNOCENT
STILL UNCONVICTED
HAVE I LOST MY WAY
BEEN LED ASTRAY
HAS TEMPTATION RULED
ANOTHER DAY
CHORUS:
ABSOLUTION
FORGIVE ME FOR MY SINS
WATERS OF REDEMPTION
ARISE TO PULL ME IN
RETRIBUTION
IS THERE A PRICE TO PAY
WHEN ALL MY DEEDS LAY BARE
ON MY JUDGEMENT DAY
ABSOLUTION
ABSOLUTION
TRUMPET SOLO
REPEAT VERSES AND CHORUS
BRIDGE:
ACT OF CONTRITION
IS IT SINCERE
SILENT CONFESSION
THAT NO ONE WILL HEAR
ANGEL OF MERCY
FLIGHT OF FORGIVENESS
HAVE YOU BROUGHT TO ME
MY DAY OF DELIVERANCE
Coda:
ABSOLUTION
ABSOLUTION
I AM ABSOLVED
