BEAUTY FOR ASHES

By. Crystal Lewis

He gives beauty for ashes
Strength for fear
Gladness for mourning
Peace for despair

He gives beauty for ashes
Strength for fear
Gladness for mourning
Peace for despair

When sorrow seems to surround you
When suffering hangs heavy on your head
Know what tomorrow brings
Wholeness and healing
God knows your need
Just believe what He said

When what you've done
Keeps you from moving on
When fear wants to make itself
At home in your heart
Know that forgiveness brings
Wholeness and healing
God knows your need
Just believe what He said

I once was lost but God has found me
Though I was bound, I've been set free
Been made righteous in His sight
A display of His splendor all can see

Peace for despair
Peace for despair
Peace for despair
He gives peace for despair
