God’s redemptive power

Talking about Mardi gras, the Big Easy,
but also about Aaron's singing,
the power in the story, in the words,
God's Amazing Grace.

Words to calm, to comfort,
assuring us of a future,
God's redemptive power
to save a wretch like me.

The members of Los Lobos were near me, watching as I was.

I saw the wedding couple riding in a carriage
