God, I feel like we are sometimes separate
And it leaves me with a sense of regret
But Yours is a face I can never forget
Even if I were to try
You don't always give me what I want in life
'Cause what I need the most is to be purified
So I come and rest here for a while
Because You keep the fire alive - You keep me alive
There is beauty (yeah) - beauty in the struggle
There is beauty (yeah) - beauty in the pain, O Lord
For today will bring tomorrow
And the once-familiar sorrow
Will turn and testify to yesterday:
Only Your beauty, Jesus, Your beauty is what remains.
Will You teach me how to love deeper still?
And sometimes it is against my will
But the more that we dig, the more room that we have to fill -
Fill it with Your Love, O God!
You don't always give me what I want in life
'Cause what I need the most is to be purified
So I come and rest here for a while
Because You keep the fire alive
There is beauty (yeah) - beauty in the struggle
There is beauty (yeah) - beauty in the pain, O Lord
For today will bring tomorrow
And the once-familiar sorrow
Will turn and testify to yesterday:
Only Your beauty, Jesus, Your beauty is what remains.
(Because) You are the strength of my heart, You are the strength of my heart,
And my portion forever and ever
You are the strength of my heart, You are the strength of my heart,
And my portion forever and ever
You are the strength of my heart, You are the strength of my heart,
And my portion forever and ever
And only Your beauty, Jesus, Your beauty is what remains
