Beautiful Things


The last month or so, I have been listening to the latest album Beautiful Things by Gungor. With the day off for Labor Day yesterday, I decided to paint a concept of mine off of this album, more specifically, the title track Beautiful Things.

Title - Beautiful Things
Medium - Acrylic
Date of Creation - September 6, 2011
Size - 8 inch by 11 inch



With a life yielded over to Christ, God takes the nothingness and sinfulness of an individual and transforms them into something beautiful. We were dead without Him, but now alive in Christ.

Beautiful Things
by: Gungor

All this pain
I wonder if I'll ever find my way
I wonder if my life could really change at all

All this earth
Could all that is lost ever be found
Could a garden come up from this ground at all

You make beautiful things
You make beautiful things out of the dust
You make beautiful things
You make beautiful things out of us

All around
Hope is springing up from this old ground
Out of chaos life is being found in You

You make beautiful things
You make beautiful things out of the dust
You make beautiful things
You make beautiful things out of us

You make me new, You are making me new
You make me new, You are making me new

You make beautiful things
You make beautiful things out of the dust
You make beautiful things
You make beautiful things out of us
