Beauty for Ashes- Roger Batin

So you think you’ve reached the point of no return
Seem to fail a thousand times, you never learn
Lift your head and breathe again, come and be restored
See the world through scarlet eyes, come alive once more

Giving beauty for ashes and joy for despair
Strength to the weak and the broken
Rest for the weary and hope for today
The Friend of the helpless is one prayer away

And sometimes you feel alone, without a friend
And things go from bad to worse, it never ends
All you thirsty come and drink, and be satisfied
Turn your mourning into joy, praise and glorify

Giving beauty for ashes and joy for despair
Strength to the weak and the broken
Rest for the weary and hope for today
The Friend of the helpless is one prayer away

I lift my voice in hallelu (4x)

Giving beauty for ashes and joy for despair
Strength to the weak and the broken
Rest for the weary and hope for today
The Friend of the helpless is one prayer away
