Capo 2

VERSE 1
    C 
The skies lay low where You are
       Dm7       F         Am
On the earth You rest Your feet
        C
Yet the hands that cradle the stars
        Dm7        F        Am     C
Are the hands that bled for me

CHORUS
     F                  C
In a moment of glorious surrender
         G                        Am
You were broken for all the world to see
       F
Lifted out of the ashes
     Am           G    C
I am found in the aftermath

VERSE 2
Freedom found in Your scars
In Your grace my life redeemed
For You chose to take the sinner’s crown
As You placed Your crown on me

CHORUS 2
In that moment of glorious surrender
Was the moment You broke the chains in me
Lifted out of the ashes
I am found in the aftermath
            F                        C
And in that moment You opened up the heavens
       Dm7                   Am
To the broken the beggar and the thief
       F
Lifted out of the wreckage
       Am          G    C
I find hope in the aftermath

BRIDGE
      Am        F        C
And I know that You're with me
      Am        F        C
Yes I know that You're with me here
      F    G    Am        F         C
And I know Your love will light the way

CHORUS 3
Now all I have I count it all as loss
But to know You and to carry the cross
Knowing I’m found
In the light of the aftermath

Description: The cross is a 
paradox. What was a symbol of 
failure and death is now 
established forever as a symbol
of life and victory. The 
crucifixion was a gruesome and 
traumatic event and at the 
moment of surrender as the 
storm clouds gathered and the
skies went to darkness it would
have seemed to all who were 
witnesses, especially His 
followers, that all hope was 
lost - the so called 'Son of 
God' humiliated and tortured, 
dying as He hung upon a cross. 
But unlike any historical event 
that
has ever taken place before or 
after, this moment would
change everything - Forever.
Because of the cross we no 
longer have to live entangled in
the fallout and the wreckage of 
our lives, or the worst the 
world can throw at us. We 
have been
lifted out of the ashes and into 
the LIGHT of the aftermath. We
find hope, peace, freedom, and 
life, and we can know with 
assurance that He is with us no
matter what comes our way. –
