I'm broken,
have fallen on my face
Nothing close to perfect ,
but there's one thing I can say
I've found
wonder within the tragedy
Hope through adversity


Beauty emerging from ashes
rises above catastrophe
rivers with no ending
flowing freely
Saved from misery
by a light bigger eyes can see
brought through the fire,
Beauty from ashes


There's a river that runs much deeper,
flowing directly into the sea
there's a beauty that is much deeper
deeper than the eye can see
There's a question with no answer
there's mystery in the suffering
brought through the fire,
Beauty from ashes

Beauty emerging from ashes
rises above catastrophe
rivers with no ending
flowing freely
Saved from misery
by a light bigger eyes can see
brought through the fire,
Beauty from ashes

Beauty from ashes
they'll rise
death brings new life
Open your eyes,
you'll see
Beauty from ashes

And though words won’t ever suffice To communicate,  Clarify,  The peace I feel in giving you  This wrangled, broken heart of mine I shall do my best to show you What those scattered, simple note’s Song sounds like Yes, you’re the Beauty that keeps me reaching  The smile beneath my tears The hidden road pointed out to me after all these years; Your imperfections only add  To the light reflecting from your smile Your flaws -the cracks through which His Love shines  You’re the hallelujah  In my song’s reprise
