lyrics

The Beautiful

Your mind is a battlefield, your heart is a shield
And the devil waits patiently to find the wounds that won’t heal
Like an angel sings, bringing words of pleasure
But taking fatal measures, hiding the words of promise,
From distractions we don’t notice grace

Turning to ashes every living dream and promise bright
For the weight of sin is death, is there still hope for eternal life?
In the souls of a sinner there is found broken beauty
That can be resurrected by a certain kind of love

There is hope for every wanderer and prodigal
And from the broken ashes you have found the beautiful
Where sin abounds, grace is found
And beauty comes around again

We sing our songs of hope and peace and grace
But never look in the face of fear and all of his friends
And we don’t comprehend what kind of danger we’re in

But hope flows from springs that are deep within our veins
But pain in humanity keeps on driving us away
From a promise so clear, and a hero so near
The angels pray for those that have the ears to hear

There is hope for every wanderer and prodigal
And from the broken ashes you have found the beautiful
Where sin abounds, grace is found
And beauty comes around again

I’m strangely overjoyed by all the trials and the darkness
Though my face shows I’m afraid, we were wonderfully and beautifully made
To find that solid ground to set our feet on, and march on,
And fight on, move right on, we have a light to set our sights on

There is hope for every wanderer and prodigal
And from the broken ashes you have found the beautiful
Where sin abounds, grace is found
And beauty comes around again
