Grace in the Ashes

[Intro -Soft Spoken Word]
Father in heaven,
In the quiet of my heart, I hear You call,
A voice of mercy, breaking down the wall.
In the ashes, I find my way,
Where grace is waiting to lead me today.
[Verse - Sung]
I grew up in the shadow of his pride,
Words that cut deeper than he realized.
A father’s love should have healed the pain,
But I’ve carried scars from his disdain.
[Pre-Chorus - Sung]
But in the silence, I turn to You,
To heal the wounds that only You can do.
[Chorus - Sung]
Grace is greater than the hurt I’ve known,
Love breaks through where bitterness has grown.
The cross reminds me I’ve been set free,
I’ll forgive, as You, God, forgave me.
[Verse - Sung]
His name still carries pain, but I’m learning to let it go,
To lay it down at the foot of the hill, where mercy flows.
I’ve seen my own heart dark with sin,
Yet You made a way to bring me in.
[Bridge - Sung]
Though I’ve been hurt, You’ve shown the way,
To lay my anger down and pray.
Teach me, Lord, to love like You,
To trust that grace will carry through.
[Chorus - Sung]
Grace is greater than the hurt I’ve known,
Love breaks through where bitterness has grown.
The cross reminds me I’ve been set free,
So I’ll forgive, as You, God, forgave me.
[Outro - Soft Spoken Word]
Father in heaven, make me whole,
Heal the scars deep in my soul.
Help me to see him as You do,
And trust You’ll make all things new.
Grace in the ashes, beauty from pain,
You’re the God who restores and sustains.
