Lifted Out of Ruin

Even though I’ve failed
Even though I’ve never measured up
And everything that is inside of me condemns me
Bringing me back down to the dirt where I was born up

You sent Your Son
Love descended from Heaven
To lift me up from my own ruin

Every mistake, every false lie I’ve ever lived for
You died to take away
Wisping away my burdens and wiping my slate clean

You give me a fresh start
Taking this broken pottery
And shaping it into something all together new

You sent Your Son
Love descended from Heaven
To lift me up from my own ruin

The blood that flowed on that fateful day
Is the purest love this world has ever seen
It runs through our hearts
Cleaning every speck of dirt and healing every wound
Lifting us out of ruin
