The inspirations for this shirt comes from the the following...
Beauty for ashes
Can he, can he give
When life's best years have gone - have passed away?
When cherished hopes, long held, no longer live,
And life seems now a drear monotony?
'Beauty for ashes!' Ashes! Yes indeed!
Ambitions, dreams and hope all shattered now:
Dearest ones gone, and none to care or heed:
Beauty for ashes? Can it be? And how?
'Beauty for ashes!' Can we thus exchange
These now cold embers of life's burned-out past
For beauty — beauty heavenly, wondrous, strange—
A beauty which throughout life's way can last?
Yes, for our ashes, he would have us take
Beauty - his own - each passing day to wear,
Till, in his likeness, satisfied, we wake,
And find new beauties, everlasting, there!
J. Danson Smith
"The Spirit of the Sovereign Lord is upon me,
because the Lord has appointed me
to bring good news to the poor
He has sent me to comfort the brokenhearted
and to announce that captives will be
released and prisoners will be freed.
He has sent me to tell those who mourn
that the time of the Lord's favor has come,
and with it, the day of God's anger against their enemies.
To all who mourn he will give beauty for ashes,
joy instead of mourning, praise instead of despair.
Isaiah 61:1-3
