ASHES

i’ve claimed to love
i’ve claimed to know
grace and truth
the light that I need

i thought I knew You then
it was just my shadow
now I have returned
to stand here on Your terms

for when I tried to see the light
my eyes turned to ashes
and when I tried to be the light
my love turned to ashes

it seems I have done
all I knew to do
now I have returned
to stand here on Your terms

for when I tried to see the light
my eyes turned to ashes
and when I tried to be the light
my love turned to ashes

at Your Word the dead will rise
say the Word and i will rise
at Your Word the dead will rise
say the Word
say

for when I tried to see the light
my eyes turned to ashes
and when I tried to be the light
my love turned to ashes
