Intro:

G  Dsus4 – D  Em  C


Verse 1:

             G
You woke up one day in a bad way
       Dsus4                      D
With a dark heart, in a small cave
      Em
And decided to hide 
         C
For the long, bitter night
     G
But one day, Someone loved you
        Dsus4                     D
Let the Light in, made the old new
           Em
From some water and mud 
            C
Wrote your new name in blood
G             Dsus4
Now something about it 
              D    Em
Just doesn’t seem real
                  C
Sometimes that’s how it feels


Chorus:

                  G
You are still a promise
                 Dsus4
The heartbeat of  God
         D      Em
You may have forgotten
            C
But He has not
                   G
You are not your ashes 
          Dsus4
You are a flame
        D        Em
Do not ask the shadows 
                   C
The Light of the world knows
            G
Knows your name


Verse 2:

           G
There was one day, you were certain 
        Dsus4                           D
That He called you, ‘cause you heard Him
          Em
And the clouds disappeared
C
Everything crystal clear
          G
But then one day it was not so
      Dsus4                  D
Other voices you did not know 
          Em
From the fray and the fringe 
           C
They were all weighing in
G              Dsus4
Now you can’t remember 
         D    Em
Who has your heart
       C
Well here’s a start


Chorus 2:

                   G
You are still a promise
                 Dsus4
The heartbeat of God
         D      Em
You may have forgotten
            C
But He has not
                   G
You are not your ashes 
          Dsus4
You are a flame
        D        Em
Do not ask the shadows 
                   C
The Light of the world knows


Bridge:

           D
You’re a friend of God, daughter, son
D
Blameless and forgiven one
           C
You’re a slave no more, finally free
G
Saints and heirs now redeemed
         D
Your beautiful and broken heart
    D
Is safe and sound in His arms
C
You are chosen, you are His
      C
So remember this 


Chorus 3:

                   G    Dsus4
You are still a promise
                Em     C
You may have forgotten
                   G
You are not your ashes
          Dsus4
You are a flame
        D        Em
Do not ask the shadows 
                   C
The Light of the world knows
            G  Dsus4
Knows your name
D   Em            C
He knows your name 
                   G
You are not your ashes
          Dsus4
You are a flame
        D        Em
Do not ask the shadows 
                   C
The Light of the world knows
            G
Knows your name
