Selah's song "Unredeemed" is a comforting Christian ballad that speaks to the pain of brokenness, shame, and hopelessness. It acknowledges the harsh realities of life—heartache, wasted years, and broken promises—but offers a message of redemption through God's grace. The lyrics emphasize that even the most shattered parts of our lives can be restored when laid before the Lord, and that the cross assures us nothing is beyond His redeeming power. The song encourages listeners to trust in God's ability to bring beauty from ashes and to hold onto hope, knowing that He will wipe every tear and make all things new.
Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team
The cruelest word, the coldest heart
The deepest wound, the endless dark
The lonely ache, the burning tears
The bitter nights, the wasted years
Life breaks and falls apart
But we know these are
Places where grace is soon to be so amazing
It may be unfulfilled, it may be unrestored
But when anything that's shattered
Is laid before the Lord
Just watch and see, it will not be unredeemed
For every choice that led to shame
And all the love that never came
For every vow that someone broke
And every life that gave up hope
We live in the shadow of the fall
But the cross says these are all
Places where grace is soon to be so amazing
It may be unfulfilled, it may be unrestored
But when anything that's shattered
Is laid before the Lord
Just watch and see, it will not be unredeemed
Oh, He will wipe every tear
Will not be, be unredeemed
Places where grace is soon to be so amazing
It may be unfulfilled, it may be unrestored
But you never know the miracle the Father has in store
Just watch and see, it will not be
Just watch and see, it will not be unredeemed
