Verse 1

In the ashes of our suffering
When the pain is felt in everything
And we grieve with all the weight of loss
For comfort in the tragedy

Verse 2

In the cruelty of the darkest day
When the grave has stolen life away
And we mourn with all our senses numbed
For comfort in the tragedy

Chorus

Hidden in eternal scars
Is love to reach the breaking heart
Let these everlasting arms
Be comfort in the tragedy

Verse 3

In the wreckage of what’s left behind
When the struggle is the hardest kind
And the agony that rages on
For comfort in the tragedy

Verse 4

In the promised gold beyond the grey
When our hope is greater than decay
And we see how we were carried through
By comfort in the tragedy
