Ashes To Amen

[Verse 1]

I came in bruised

Still standing tall

Mud on my shoes

But I heard the call

Mama said pray

When the floor gets thin

I held that hurt

And I let it in

[Pre-Chorus]

Now the room goes quiet

When I say Your name

I feel the chain break

I feel that change

[Chorus]

Amen in the ashes

Amen in the flames

I rise, I rise

I rise again

Amen in the ashes

Amen on my tongue

You held me up

When I was done

[Verse 2]

I spit out doubt

Like stones in my mouth

Took every hit

Then I sang it out

Blood in my stare

Fire in my ribs

They said I’d fold

But I never did

[Pre-Chorus]

Now the room goes wild

When I say Your name

I feel the pain leave

I feel that change

[Chorus]

Amen in the ashes

Amen in the flames

I rise, I rise

I rise again

Amen in the ashes

Amen on my tongue

You held me up

When I was done

[Bridge]

[Half-time breakdown]

If I fall, I fall forward

If I break, I break open

Every scar got a story

Every tear got a token

[Final Chorus]

Amen in the ashes

Amen in the flames

I rise, I rise

I rise again

Amen in the ashes

Amen on my tongue

You held me up

When I was done
