A christian song...the words are to me great "Beauty From Pain" The lights go out all around me One last candle to keep out the night And then the darkness surrounds me I know i'm alive but i feel like i've died And all that's left is to accept that it's over My dreams ran like sand through the fists that i made I try to keep warm but i just grow colder I feel like i'm slipping away After all this has passed, i still will remain After i've cried my last, there'll be beauty from pain Though it won't be today, Someday i'll hope again And there'll be beauty from pain You will bring beauty from my pain My whole world is the pain inside me The best i can do is just get through the day When life before is only a memory I'll wonder why God lets me walk through this place And though i can't understand why this happened I know that i will when i look back someday And see how you've brought beauty from ashes And made me as gold purified through these flames After all this has passed, i still will remain After i've cried my last, there'll be beauty from pain Though it won't be today, Someday i'll hope again And there'll be beauty from pain You will bring beauty from my pain Here i am, at the end of me Tryin to hold to what i can't see I forgot how to hope This night's been so long I cling to Your promise There will be a dawn After all this has passed, i still will remain After i've cried my last, there'll be beauty from pain Though it won't be today, Someday i'll hope again And there'll be beauty from pain You will bring beauty from my pain

Those are beautiful words. I only wish I could hear the song itself. Why don't you upload it onto your page or something. My favourite Christian song goes like this : He can turn the tides and calm the angry seas He alone decides who writes a symphony He lights up the stars and makes the darkness bright He keeps watch all through the long and lonely night He still finds the time to hear a child's first prayer Saints or Sinners call will always find him there Though it makes him sad to see the way we live He'll always say I forgive Okay, it's actully a hymn from church that I heard the choir singing and fell in love with! hehehe

That's a great idea Hope...for him to post it on his profile page or webpage or blog. It is beautiful and very full of meaning. I really like the one you added as well. Thank you very much. I am gaining alot of inspiration tonight, just from being on myLot. It is nice to interact with other Christians in such a crazy world.

That is beautiful. Do you know who it is written by? I have never heard it before. I am going to print it out and post it on my wall. I hope that's okay with you. Blessings to you.
