Gave me joy for mourning
Beauty for ashes
And He brought me a white rose
He has brought me back
He has restored my soul
Gave me springtime bloom for winter vistas
Dancing for the aimless meandering of a bruised soul
And a white rose, He has brought to me
He has brought me back
From grave clothes and faithless ways
He has borne my pain and guilt
Righteousness for shame
Peace for strife
Which surpasses all understanding
Higher than the stars that guides my night
Brighter than the sun that guides my day
