Giving life

You turn ashes to beauty

Anguish to songs of praise

G                Em – C
Pour Your Spirit over me

Let Your love rain down

And lead me

 
Verse 2:
The Spirit of the Sovereign Lord

To go, to free, to give, to feed
The Spirit of the Sovereign Lord
Is on me now
Spreading love

Bm   Em             Am
You lead me to the poor
                 Bm
That’s where You are

You lead me to the weak
                 Bm
That’s where You are
     Em             Am
You lead me to the lost
                 Bm
That’s where You are
     Em        Am
Lord I want to be
           Am
Where You are

The Vine Band

The Vine Band is a modern praise and worship band based in Hong Kong, China. Led by worship leader, Tom Read, The Vine Band has been pioneering a new sound of worship in Hong Kong, and throughout Asia.

Tom Read together with the Vine Band are set to perform on January 23, 2009 (Friday) at The Mega Tent in Meralco Avenue, Ortigas, for a Passionate Night of Worship.  Gate opens at 5:30pm and admission is FREE.

I’ve been listening non-stop to The Vine Band’s latest album “From Ashes to Beauty” and it has greatly encouraged me.  Incidentally, Friday last week i received an email from Tom Read informing me about their upcoming tour here in Manila.  I was both excited and happy to hear from him personally.  He penned the beautiful song ”From Ashes to Beauty“ which has touched so many lives.  I am both delighted and blessed when he gave me permission to post the lyrics/chords to that song here in my blog.  I will do that soon. Promise.

In the meantime, i’m asking you to please spread the word and invite your loved ones, family, and friends to attend A Passionate Night of Worship.  It’s going to be a wonderful night with The Vine Band.  See you at the Mega Tent!
