Rebuild, Restore, Renew (Isaiah 61)

Excerpt from Our Lyrical Life


The Spirit of the Lord has anointed Me

To set the captives free, bring liberty

Through us His Love’s revealed

Broken hearts are healed, Empty lives are filled.


He’s Rebuilding and Restoring

Renewing our Families

Now’s there’s singing, and dancing,

Rejoicing in the city


The Spirit of the Lord has covered me

To heal the pain, take away my grief

Through us His hearts revealed

To wipe away the tears, Drive away the fears

(Chorus)


He’s given us beauty for ashes.

All of the dark days are past tense.

The oil of joy for mourning,

A new day is dawning!


Rebuilding, restoring

Renewing our families,

There’s singing and dancing

Rejoicing in the city


Beauty for ashes

Dark days are past tense

Oil of joy for mourning

A new day is dawning
