Description

Final Chorus

I don’t recognize the girl in the mirror She smiles less now, her light′s grown thinner

My body′s broken, my spirit bruised And joy feels like a language I never used

They say He gives beauty where ashes fall But all I feel is the weight of it all

Hope′s a thread unraveling slow But He who holds me will not let go

So I lay it all down on the altar again My dreams, my pain, my trembling hands

If I must walk through fire, Lord, walk me through I′ve got nothing left, only trust in You

This broken hallelujah, this silent praise Let it rise from the ruins You haven′t yet raised

Ashes and altar, meet me here God of the weeping, draw near

I′m tired of smiling when it′s all pretend Of bleeding alone, of losing again

They said they′d come, but no one came Still You whispered softly, called my name

When love walked out and left me bare You stayed behind, You always care

Your grace became the ground I knew When every step just broke me in two

So I lay it all down on the altar again My dreams, my pain, my trembling hands

If I must walk through fire, Lord, walk me through I′ve got nothing left, only trust in You

This broken hallelujah, this silent praise Let it rise from the ruins You haven′t yet raised

Ashes and altar, meet me here God of the weeping, draw near

I didn′t worship, I just wept Curled in the dark where the silence crept

I didn′t sing, I only stared At all the prayers You never spared

I bit my tongue to hold back rage But grief still howled inside my cage

If this is faith, it′s cracked and thin But it′s the only thing I′ve got within

Still the silence screams at night Still I question wrong and right

But if You′re near, then don′t let go I′m still Yours and that′s all I know

So I lay it all down on the altar again This bruised and barren trembling, amen

You catch each tear that falls unseen You hold the ache inside of me

Ashes and altar, let Your fire fall Not to fix me but to hold it all

I′m still here, not healed but known And You won′t crush this bruised soul
