[Verse 1]
I came in tired
Shoes full of dust
You met me there
With mercy enough
You saw the cracks
The bruised-up places
Still You called me
By better names
I had questions
You had peace
I was shaking
You covered me
(You covered me)
Right where I stood
And somehow shame
Started to lose
[Pre-Chorus]
Now I feel it
Something changing
Heavy falls off
When You speak
I was breaking
Now I'm breathing
Your hand on me
Makes me clean
[Chorus]
Covered in glory
Covered in glory
You turned my ashes
Into a story
Covered in glory
Covered in glory
What tried to break me
Could not ignore me
Oh, I stand up
I stand up free
(covered in glory)
Oh, You wrapped me
You wrapped me in peace
(covered in glory)
[Verse 2]
Same old mirror
New reflection
Same old road
New direction
I used to bow
To every wound
Now I lift my face
And look for You
The room gets bright
When I say yes
My heart says amen
To Your goodness
I'm still here
But not the same
I carry heaven
In my name
[Pre-Chorus]
Now I feel it
Something changing
Chains keep falling
At Your feet
I was hidden
Now I'm shining
Grace is moving
Through me
[Chorus]
Covered in glory
Covered in glory
You turned my ashes
Into a story
Covered in glory
Covered in glory
What tried to break me
Could not ignore me
Oh, I stand up
I stand up free
(covered in glory)
Oh, You wrapped me
You wrapped me in peace
(covered in glory)
[Bridge]
Take what was broken
And make it holy
Take every tear
And call it glory
I don't need perfect
I just need You
When You hold me
I rise brand new
No more hiding
No more hiding
Your love keeps finding
What's been surviving
[Chorus]
Covered in glory
Covered in glory
You turned my ashes
Into a story
Covered in glory
Covered in glory
What tried to break me
Could not ignore me
Oh, I stand up
I stand up free
(covered in glory)
Oh, You wrapped me
You wrapped me in peace
(covered in glory)
[Outro]
Covered in glory
Yes, covered in glory
I was buried in dust
Now I'm shining in mercy
