Ruins
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I look around and all I see
Are burning buildings, barren trees
Hopelessness is starting to wreak havoc
But Son of Man, I know You see
The deepest depths unknown to me
You have planted seeds among the ashes
You rebuild, You restore
All that's broken
From the ruins
You redeem, You return
All that's stolen
From Your children
That's what You do
That's what You do
So be still my anxious heart
All that's gone is never lost
Emmanuel is here and He is faithful
So I won't let my praises stop
I'll sing it from these rubbled rocks
'Cause I know You are good and You are able, whoa
You rebuild, You rеstore
All that's broken
From the ruins
You rеdeem, You return
All that's stolen
From Your children
That's what You do
That's what You do
You raise beauty from ashes
Yeah, that's what You do
You turn sorrow to gladness
Yeah, that's what You do
I give glory and honor
For all that You do
I will sing hallelujah
For all that You do
You raise beauty from ashes
Yeah, that's what You do
You turn sorrow to gladness
Yeah, that's what You do
I give glory and honor
For all that You do
I will sing hallelujah
For all that You do
For all that You do
You rebuild, You restore
All that's broken
From the ruins
You redeem, You return
All that's stolen
From Your children
You rebuild, You restore (Yes, You do)
All that's broken (All that's broken)
From the ruins (From the ruins)
You redeem (Yes, You are), You return (Yes, You do)
All that's stolen (All that's stolen)
From Your children
That's what You do
That's what You do
