He gives beauty for ashes
Strength for fear
Gladness for mourning
Peace for despair
When sorrow seems to surround you
When suffering hangs heavy oer your head
Know that tomorrow brings
Wholeness and healing
God knows your need
Just believe what He said
He gives beauty for ashes
Strength for fear
Gladness for mourning
Peace for despair
When what youve done keeps you from moving on
When fear wants to make itself at home in your heart
Know that forgiveness brings
Wholeness and healing
God knows your need
Just believe what He said
He gives beauty for ashes
Strength for fear
Gladness for mourning
Peace for despair
I once was lost but God has found me
Though I was bound Ive been set free
Ive been made righteous in His sight
A display of His splendor all can see
He gives beauty for ashes
Strength for fear
Gladness for mourning
Peace for despair

Crystal Lewis reminds me of my childhood so I have enjoyed listening to this song. I'm often done reading your blog but I stay here just so I can finish the song. :)
The part that I love the most is-
STRENGTH FOR FEAR- I am a very fearful person (water, heights, boats, freeway driving, being without Mike in the night, etc.)
I also like GLADNESS FOR MOURNING, PEACE FOR DESPAIR because I've been going through a lot lately and often find myself needing gladness and peace.
Thanks for sharing the song. There are so many great songs from long ago that are still just as powerful today.
