Hand of mercy, hand of love
Are you writing in the dust?
I am waiting patiently
For a voice that I can trust
Though I wrestle in the tempest
And through the hollows of my grief
You will lead me from the wasteland
You will heal my unbelief

I set my heart on a pilgrimage
Turn my eyes on the One who brings new life
And trades me beauty for ashes
No other strength than God alone
In joy and sorrow the keeper of my soul
You're trading beauty for ashes

Should the moon begin to fade
Or the sun forget its light
I will only seek Your face
I will not give up the fight
You are faithful in the valley
Where the tears begin
You are beauty on the journey
You're the shade I'm hidden in

I set my heart on a pilgrimage
Turn my eyes on the One who brings new life
And trades me beauty for ashes
No other strength than God alone
In joy and sorrow the keeper of my soul
You're trading beauty for ashes

You are faithful in the valley
Where the tears begin
You are beauty on the journey
You're the shade I'm hidden in
You're the shade I'm hidden in
Be the shade I'm hidden in
