One day all of our sorrows,
will be a thought of no more
when from ashes into beauty
we enter through heaven’s door.
The brokenhearted will see,
their painful grief bound up
their mourning will be silenced
by the oil of joy in His cup.
He will raise the soul penitent,
from their fallen, sinful state
the poor in spirit He’ll elevate
all the way to heaven’s gate.
He’ll set the remorseful free,
from the chains of their sin
as the yoke of guilt and shame
no longer chokes from within.
All those who have made Jesus,
the Lord and Master of their life
will not be punished or condemned
nor be damned for their past strife.
He’ll comfort all who’ve mourned,
as to Him their praises sing . . .
and their garments will be draped
with the glory that He will bring!
~~~~~~~~~
To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion,
to give unto them beauty for ashes,
the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of
praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they
might be called trees of righteousness,
the planting of the Lord, that he might be
glorified.”
