Song Lyrics

---

I’ve been through enough
Of the ups and downs of life
To know that nothing else
Can make me come alive
Lord, help me hear Your voice
There above the noise
For Your presence my soul cries

And out of the ashes
You will lift me up
You restore my life
With Your wonderful love
Through all these tears
You will make me new
And restore my heart
With songs of praise to You
Out of the ashes

God, for You alone I live
And all for You I’d die
I won’t turn to something else
For only You can satisfy
And You shout out my name
Through the tears and the pain
You are the light to my eyes

And out of the ashes
You will lift me up
You restore my life
With Your wonderful love
Through all these tears
You will make me new
And restore my heart
With songs of praise to You
Out of the ashes

You give beauty for ashes
Glory for pain
Gladness for mourning
And joy for shame
For You I give everything

And out of the ashes
You will lift me up
You restore my life
With Your wonderful love
Through all these tears
You will make me new
And restore my heart
With songs of praise to You
Out of the ashes
