You woke up one day in a bad way
With a dark heart in a small cave
And decided to hide
For the long bitter night
But one day someone loved you
Let the light in, made the old new
From some water and mud
Wrote you new name in love
Now something about it just doesn't seem real
Sometimes that's just how it feels
You are still a promise
Heartbeat of God
You may have forgotten
But He has not,
You are not your ashes
You are a flame
Do not ask the shadows
The light of the world knows
Knows your name
There was one day, you were certain
That he called you, 'cause you heard Him,
And the crowd disappeared,
Everything crystal clear
But then one day it was not so
Other voices you didn't know
From the frey and the fringe they were all weighing in
Now you can't remember who has your heart
Well here's a start
You are still a promise
Heartbeat of God,
You may have forgotten
But He has not
You are not your ashes
You are a flame
Do not ask the shadows
The light of the world knows
Your a friend of God, God the Son
Blameless and forgiven one
The slave no more, finally free
Sins and errors are now redeemed
Oh beautiful and broken heart
Is safe and sound in His arms
You were chosen you were His
So remember this
You are still a promise
You may have forgotten
You are not your ashes
You are a flame
Do not ask shadows
The light of the world knows
Knows your name
He knows your name
You are not your ashes
You are a flame
Do not ask the shadows
The light of the world knows
Knows your name
