Beauty From the Ashes
July 13, 2015
You can see the destruction
The smoke and dust rising from the ruins
But beauty will come from the ashes
You can watch the fires rage
Consuming everything in its path
But beauty will come from the ashes
The ground will rise and fall
In a wave of devastation
But beauty will come from the ashes
You can feel the earth tremble
And mountains shake to their foundations
But beauty will come from the ashes
He will bring beauty from the ashes.
