Dust

Trust in the Lord (2022), no. 2

Artist: Yahosh Bonner

Arranger: Mike McClellan

1. I was made from the ashes, I was part of the earth. And I could stay in ground or find the way out And shake off the dirt. I cried to my Maker, and He saved my soul. And I’m headed to the city with the streets of gold Far on the opposite side of the setting sun.

I’m rising up, My soul is on fire. Nothing’s got a hold on me. I’m rising up— Up from the rubble. I was drowning, but now I’m free. My chains are broken; I am a better man. I found my way to the promised land. I’m not who I was; I’m rising up from the dust.

2. Like a diamond under pressure, Like metal to the flame, I was broken down, but I’m not broken now. I’m stronger from all the pain. The rivers that I cross are gonna wash me clean. And the summits that I’m on will help my blind eyes see Far on the opposite side, And though it’s a slow climb.

I’m rising up, My soul is on fire. Nothing’s got a hold on me. I’m rising up— Up from the rubble. I was drowning, but now I’m free. My chains are broken; I am a better man. I found my way to the promised land. I’m not who I was; I’m rising up from the dust.

I’m rising up, My soul is on fire. Nothing’s got a hold on me. I’m rising up— Up from the rubble. I was drowning, but now I’m free. My chains are broken; I am a better man. I found my way to the promised land. I’m not who I was; I’m rising up from the dust.
