Praise in the Ashes
Verse 1:
In the valley of shadows, where silence reigns,
Under the heavy skies, amidst our pains.
We feel the touch of sorrow, the grip of loss,
Yet in these ashes, we see the face of the Cross.
Chorus:
In the ashes, we praise, lifting hands in the night,
Finding grace in our tears, through the darkest fight.
Though the earth may shake, and the storms rage wild,
“God is with us,” we sing, His love divine, His child.
Verse 2:
Through the fire and the floods, when hope seems far,
We’re held in hands that bear the world’s scars.
In our suffering, a whisper, tender and soft,
“I am with you, always, even in the loft.”
Chorus:
In the ashes, we praise, lifting hands in the night,
Finding grace in our tears, through the darkest fight.
Though the earth may shake, and the storms rage wild,
“God is with us,” we sing, His love divine, His child.
Bridge:
Let our praises rise, from the depths to the skies,
A sacrifice of praise, in our cries, love replies.
In our weakest hour, in His strength, we tower,
God’s presence, a fortress, His unbreakable power.
A sacrifice of praise, in our cries, love replies.
In our weakest hour, in His strength, we tower,
God’s presence, a fortress, His unbreakable power.
Verse 3:
When the night is long, and the dawn seems delayed,
In our heart’s sacred song, His promises are relayed.
For in the suffering, the greatest love was shown,
On a rugged cross, where our sorrows He owned.
On a rugged cross, where our sorrows He owned.
When the night is long, and the dawn seems delayed,
In our heart’s sacred song, His promises are relayed.
For in the suffering, the greatest love was shown,
On a rugged cross, where our sorrows He owned.
Outro:
So we’ll praise Him in ashes, in sorrow, we’ll stand,
With a faith unshaken, in His holy land.
In the midst of the fire, in shadows, we’ll sing,
To our God, our Savior, our eternal King.
