Verse 1
Dusty dawn, broken down and blue,
Bitter winds whisper, I’m still missin’ you.
Hands worn from prayin’, knees bruised from fallin’,
But the voice in the silence keeps my soul callin’.
Verse 2
Whiskey wounds, worn-out boots on the floor,
Memories linger like a locked-up door.
Tears like tumbleweeds, they roll and they roam,
But I carry my faith like a fire back home.
Chorus
Ashes and amen, I’m broken but I believe,
Through the hurt and the heartache, there’s more than I can see.
Every sorrow I’m wearin’, every shadow I’ve known,
I’m standin’ on the promise, I’m never alone.
Verse 3
Creakin’ chairs and creakin’ hearts,
The night feels endless, tearin’ me apart.
Yet a whisper of mercy, a hand unseen,
Pulls me from the dark where I’ve always been.
Verse 4
Faith like a river, slow but strong,
Carries my heart through the sorrowful song.
Even when the world feels cruel and cold,
I find a warmth in the Word I hold.
Chorus
Ashes and amen, I’m broken but I believe,
Through the hurt and the heartache, there’s more than I can see.
Every sorrow I’m wearin’, every shadow I’ve known,
I’m standin’ on the promise, I’m never alone.
Bridge
Raspy prayers rise, like smoke to the sky,
Every tear that falls, I lift with a sigh.
I ain’t blind to the pain, I ain’t numb to the strife,
But I walk with the Maker all through my life.
Verse 5
Sunrise slowly, siftin’ through my pain,
Each ray reminds me I can rise again.
Sadness still lingers, but I carry my light,
Faith in the darkness, holdin’ on tight.
Chorus
Ashes and amen, I’m broken but I believe,
Through the hurt and the heartache, there’s more than I can see.
Every sorrow I’m wearin’, every shadow I’ve known,
I’m standin’ on the promise, I’m never alone.
Outro
Dusty dawn, broken down and blue,
I’m carryin’ my sadness, but my faith is true.
Raspy and raw, but I rise with the sun,
Ashes and amen, the battle is won.
