We've got beauty for ashes
We've got joy for our mourning and
Our praise will lift off all our heaviness
We've got peace in the chaos
We've got hope when we've gone lost
(We are lost?)
For when two of us are gathered He is Here
He is good
All the time
Amen
He sent us to bind the broken
To preach good news to the poor for
His Spirit is upon us
He's anointed us with oil to
To bring freedom to those imprisoned
The blind will see and the lame will run
For the Power that rose Him that April, lives inside of us
All of our words could never come close
To the glory of Him all history will know
So give thanks for the mercies enduring forever the Goodness of God is the story worth telling
