If you've found your way here, you may already know that my name is Bill and I enjoy writing songs about God. If you did not know that, well now you do. I hope to be faithful with the songs I write. I'm not sure I know how to do that, but I think this website is a start. It contains the lyrics, chord charts, mp3's, even the stories behind the songs. And it is all free to you. So look around. Enjoy. And thanks for stopping by.

From Dust to Glory



download chord chart // download mp3

(verse)
From dust to glory
From death to dawn
Ashes to beauty
Brighter than the sun

You’ve found me holy
You’ve found me pure
You call me lovely
O You call me Yours

(chorus)
From dust to glory
From dust to glory I have come

(bridge)
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
You bought me from my death and gave me life
Yes, You made me to rise…

I wrote this song while listening to a sermon about death and the after-life. The old adage goes, "From ashes to ashes, from dust to dust." Well, that may be true for the rest of the world. But for those of us who claim Jesus as Christ and God, that simply does not tell the full story.

For us, it is dust to glory and ashes to beauty brighter than the sun.

Hallelujah. Hallelujah.
