Titus 2 Men And Women

Beauty For Ashes
by Joe Merhalski

Beauty For Ashes

Isaiah 61:3

When life's pathway grows uncertain,
And the winds of doubt blow strong;
When no one seems to understand,
And the night is growing long;
God remembers that I'm human,
He knows my flesh is weak;
When I claim His Spirit's presence,
He gives the comfort that I seek.

He'll give you beauty for ashes,
Joy for your mourning
He will clothe your heavy spirit with His praise
He's the healer of the broken heart,
He sets the captive free;
He plants us in His righteousness,
That, through our suffering, God might be glorified.

When your hopes have turned to ashes,
And your dreams have turned to dust,
When your life is scarred by a painful past
Your think your usefulness is lost;
Bring your ashes to the Saviour
Lay them at His nail-pierced feet,
He'll pick up the shattered ruins,
He will make your life complete.

He'll give you beauty for ashes,
Joy for your mourning
He will clothe your heavy spirit with His praise
He's the healer of the broken heart,
He sets the captive free;
He plants us in His righteousness,
That, through our suffering, God might be glorified.
