Housefires and Nate Moore's song contrasts human limitation with God's transformative perspective. The lyrics describe seeing ashes, orphanhood, frailty, blindness, water, dead branches, weakness, and failure, while God sees dreams, family, might, light, wine, the vine, blood, and sufficiency. The chorus celebrates God's gifts of praise, joy, and mercy. The bridge emphasizes being called, lifted, made right, and brought back to life by God's love. The song encourages trust in God's redemptive power and perspective.

Verse

I saw my ashes, but you saw your dream

I saw an orphan, you were my family

I saw my frailty, but you saw your might

I saw my blindness, but you were the light


Chorus

You give me garments of praise, fullness of joy

Unending mercy, new every morning

Garments of praise, fullness of joy

Unending mercy, new every morning


Verse

I saw the water, but you saw the wine

I saw dead branches, but you were the vine

I saw my weakness, but you saw your blood

I saw my failure, but you were enough


Chorus

You give me garments of praise, fullness of joy

Unending mercy, new every morning

Garments of praise, fullness of joy

Unending mercy, new every morning


Bridge

'Cause I was lost, 'til you called me out by name

And I was down, 'til you picked me up again

And I was wrong, 'til your love it made me right

I was dead, 'til you sang me back to life
