Catholic Mass Songs Lyrics

Tom Conry


1. We rise again from ashes, from the good we failed to do.
We rise again from ashes, to create ourselves anew.
If all the world is ashes, then must our lives be true.
An offering of ashes, an offering to You.

2. We offer You our failures, we offer You attempts.
The gifts not fully given, the dreams not fully dreamt.
Give our stumbling direction, give our vision wider view.
An offering of ashes, an offering to You.

3. Then rise again from ashes, let healing come to pain.
Though spring has turned to winter, and sunshine turned to rain.
The rain we’ll use for growing, and create the world anew.
From an offering of ashes, an offering to You.

4. Thanks be to the Father, who made us like Himself.
Thanks be to His Son, who saved us by His death.
Thanks be to the Spirit, who creates the world anew.
From an offering of ashes, an offering to You.
