Furnace of Affliction (Job)
by Aryn Michelle

Album: PARIAH - songs of biblical outcasts

Chorus
I have been tried in the furnace of affliction
For the refining of my soul
I have been tried in the furnace of affliction
Did You break me down just to make me whole?

Verse 1
My friends all say I must deserve it
Asking me what I could have done wrong
The ones I love, they tell me to give You up
Turn my back, and move on

Chorus
I have been tried in the furnace of affliction
For the refining of my soul
I have been tried (I have been tried)
I have been tried (I have been tried)
I have been tried in the furnace of affliction
Did You break me down just to make me whole?

Verse 2
I lost my fortune, lost my future
My body is aching and my strength is all gone
You gave and gave and then took it all away
If I just have You, is that enough?

Chorus
I have been tried in the furnace of affliction
For the refining of my soul
I have been tried (I have been tried)
I have been tried (I have been tried)
I have been tried in the furnace of affliction
Did You break me down just to make me whole?

Bridge
I know that You can do all things
'Cause everything is Yours
So who am I to run my mouth
I'll wait, I'll wait
I'll stay right here among these flames
Until the work is done
Then pluck me from the ashes
Like a phoenix rising up

Chorus
I have been tried in the furnace of affliction
For the refining of my soul
I have been tried in the furnace of affliction
Did You break me down just to make me whole?

Outro
I have been tried (I have been tried)
I have been tried
