Beauty From Ashes
A Word to the Victory Life Church Family
Arising from the ashes,
Is beauty beyond compare;
Amidst the devastation,
God still is standing there.
He walks among the embers,
Surveys the wood and stone;
Then turning to His Church, He speaks,
“You do not stand alone.”
“For I, your God, am with you,
I brought you to this place;
And I will bring beauty from ashes,
If you only seek My face.”
He speaks with words of compassion,
Meant to set your heart free;
“Arise and walk where I send you,
And you shall find Victory.”
“It is not in the wood or stone,
But deep within your soul;
Seek what I freely give to you,
And I will make you whole.”
Arising from the ashes,
Is beauty beyond compare;
And the voice of a loving Father,
Who is with you...Standing there.
