I feel the weight
The remnants of my past
How could you make redemption from the dust
But you came in
With unexpected mercy
You met every fear
By the power of your name
Oh, what a gracious Father
You made these ruins an altar
Only grace could build cathedrals out of bones that have been raised
Your honour pouring out into this vessel made of clay
For your glory we will rise
From the ashes to the skies
For your glory we will rise
From the ashes to the skies
Refined by flames
Consuming every part
You changed my name
And that's where my story starts
When you came in
With unexpected mercy
You wiped every tear
And wrapped me in your arms
Oh, what a gracious Father
You made these ruins an altar
Only grace could build cathedrals out of bones that have been raised
Your honour pouring out into this vessel made of clay
For your glory we will rise
From the ashes to the skies
For your glory we will rise
From the ashes to the skies
Then you came in
With unexpected mercy
You changed everything
And told me I am worthy
Yes, you came in
With overwhelming power
Conquered every fear
Now I'm free in Jesus' name
Oh, what a gracious Father
You made these ruins an altar
Only grace could build cathedrals out of bones that have been raised
Your honour pouring out into this vessel made of clay
For your glory we will rise
From the ashes to the skies
For your glory we will rise
From the ashes to the skies
We will rise
We will rise
From the ashes to the skies we will rise
We will rise
