Beauty from Ashes ft. Emily Poma & Abi Stapleton Lyrics

There may be people

Who say that they are the Messiah

Long story

They are not

You will know

I'll try to keep it short

It's been a long story

Trying to keep it short

Be the salt of the earth

Cause you know that it's worth it

And He knows that it's worth it

Long story

No weapon shall prosper

But you found me here

God

I don't know who needs this

Well maybe it's you

I could never get sober

Now my cup runneth over

God found me

When I thought my life it was over

The trials they mold you

He gone hold you

He don't wanna scold you

In the fires where He had to mold you

You're still perfect

Case nobody told you

Built in His image

He is not finished

Your cup has been low

And it's time to replenish

I can't write this down

Pray He finish the sentence

No weapon shall prosper

Try not to be timid

When you're with the Father

There's truly no limit

Plank out of my eye

Now my prayers through the ceiling

The Holy Spirit's gonna fill it

Try to listen I know what you're feeling

Down on the white

Lost kids and a wife

A home that was nice

Had a wonderful life

But I didn't know

There was demons inside

They thought I was crazy

And that I might die

Couldn't put down the pipe

Thousands and thousands

I spent every dollar in sight

The Devil took me for a ride

Ten years of her life

My kids couldn't look in my eyes

Where am I at?

Are you coming back?

Long talks in the mirror

Don't know how to react

I try to go home but wound up in the trap

My daughters were thinking

Like where is my dad?

Truly I tell you I was going out bad

Trying to reach for the word

Picked up a slab

The Lord gonna meet you where you're at

It's truly a fact

He found me laying on my back

God God God

I don't know what to do

I don't know where to go

My wife's gone

The kids won't talk to me

I can't stop smoking this

Stop smoking this

He knows

God please

Show me who you are

Reveal yourself to me

I don't know who needs this

Well maybe it's you

I could never get sober

Now my cup runneth over

God found me

When I thought my life it was over

The trials they mold you

He gone hold you

He don't wanna scold you

In the fires where He had to mold you

You're still perfect

Case nobody told you

Built in His image

He is not finished

Your cup has been low

And it's time to replenish

I can't write this down

Pray He finish the sentence

No weapon shall prosper

Try not to be timid

When you're with the Father

There's truly no limit

Plank out of my eye

Now my prayers through the ceiling

The Holy Spirit's gonna fill it

Try to listen I know what you're feeling

Who'd have known how it turn out

I had to ask the Lord

Where am I fixing to go now

Took a while to heal

It's all right we're on the go now

Got a new wife new home God show out

My daughters know daddy with the Lord

He got a glow now

Had a lot of thoughts in my mind

He had to throw out

Now I got no doubt

Glad I never sold out

Reap what I sow now

He told me to slow down

Just try to be patient and get to the root

Forgive all those people

That wanted to hurt you

I know it don't feel right

But that's what you do

Your way is not working

What do you lose

There's no temptation

That's overcome you

Don't let your struggles redefine the truth

God knows where your life can find the proof

Seek first the Kingdom

And watch what He do

It's worth it

I don't know who needs this

Well maybe it's you

I could never get sober

Now my cup runneth over

God found me

When I thought my life it was over

The trials they mold you

He gone hold you

He don't wanna scold you

In the fires where He had to mold you

You're still perfect

Case nobody told you

Built in His image

He is not finished

Your cup has been low

And it's time to replenish

I can't write this down

Pray He finish the sentence

No weapon shall prosper

Try not to be timid

When you're with the Father

There's truly no limit

Plank out of my eye

Now my prayers through the ceiling

The Holy Spirit's gonna fill it

Try to listen I know what you're feeling

God I just thank you God

That you revealed yourself to me Lord

In such a way

In such a way that I couldn't let it go

And if people would just fall

More in love with you

The ways of the world

Would fall off of them

Because there is no other He

In Jesus name

That has the name of Jesus
