Intro

Refrain

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

Verse

When sorrow seems to surround you

When suffering hangs heavy on your head

Know that tomorrow brings wholeness and healing

God knows you're near, just believe what he said

(Repeat REFRAIN)

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 you're near, just believe what he said

(Repeat REFRAIN)

I once was lost, but God has found me

I was bound, I've been set free

I've been made righteous in his sight

A display of His splendor all can see (repeat)

(Repeat REFRAIN 2X)

...peace for despair, peace for despair, he gives peace for despair
