Verse 1

I feel the weight
The remnants of my past
How could You make
Redemption from the dust

Pre Chorus 1

But You came in
With unexpected mercy
You met every fear
By the power of Your Name

Chorus

Oh what a gracious Father
You made these ruins an altar
Only grace could build cathedrals out of bones
That have been raised
Your honor 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

Verse 2

Refined by flames
Consuming every part
You changed my name
That’s where my story starts

Pre Chorus 2

When You came in
With unexpected mercy
You wiped every tear
And wrapped me in Your arms

Chorus

Oh what a gracious Father
You made these ruins an altar
Only grace could build cathedrals out of bones
That have been raised
Your honor 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

Pre Chorus 3

Then You came in
With unexpected mercy
You changed everything
And told me I am worthy

Pre Chorus 4

Yes You came in
With overwhelming power
Conquered every fear
Now I’m free in Jesus’ Name

Chorus

Oh what a gracious Father
You made these ruins an altar
Only grace could build cathedrals out of bones
That have been raised
Your honor 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
