Trying Lyrics by Anna Miriam Brown

Of Ashes the Musical

2023

[MOSES & ENCORE]
We lift you high! (we come to lift you high)
(To give a sacrifice) To give a sacrifice
For favor on our lives (for favor on our lives)
(So scarlet sins grow white) Scarlet sins grow white!
(High!) (we come to life you high)
We lift you high! (to give a sacrifice)
(We lift you) High! (for favor on our)
(We lift you) High (so scarlet sins grow)
(We lift you) 'Cause yours is the honor
(Yours is the honor, yours is the power, yours is the glory forever and ever)
Yours is the power
(Yours is the honor, yours is the power, yours is the glory forever and ever)
Yours is the glory, oh the glory
(Yours is the honor, yours is the power, yours is the glory forever and ever)
Forever and ever!
(Yours is the honor, yours is the power, yours is the glory forever and ever)
[ASHRA]
I'm sure you're surprised
That I'd show my face here
I shouldn't stay here
But I'll compromise
For the sake of my baby
Grace, will you take me?
Dead or alive
If you send me help, sir
I'll be your helper
The rest of my life
Whatever you like
[ASHRA]
I wanna be a mother to this baby that's coming (baby that's coming)
But I'm all alone and not good at loving (not good at loving)
The proof is in a runner that I once called my husband (husband)
I wonder when you look down from your heavenly seat (heavenly seat)
Do your eyes meet with women like me? (women like me)
Oh, I'm looking for a light but can't succeed
I can't succeed (I can't succeed)
[ASHRA]
But I'm trying
I'm trying
I'm trying (trying)
[ASHRA]
If you're who they say
Then you owe me grace, Lord
I have obeyed, Lord
Most of my days
This blood in my veins, Lord
Flows to pertain yours
Though I have strayed
And this life that I live in
Is far from religious
Forgiveness seems out of my reach
But at least drop the scraps from your plate
[ASHRA]
Yahweh would have empathy
Or will you, too, cheat me? (cheat me)
See, I'm alone
'Cause everyone leaves me (everyone leaves me)
The proof is in an enemy who once called me family (family)
My father was a father who defiled that word (that word)
By God's terms, a child got hurt (got hurt)
Left cursing at a mirror, my God, it still burns
I still burn (I still burn)
Yet, I'm refusing to learn
[ASHRA]
But I'm trying
I'm trying (trying)
I'm trying
I'm trying (trying)
I'm trying (trying)
I'm trying (trying)
Trying! (trying)
[ASHRA & ENCORE]
So, I'm going to my brother
And his answer, your answer
Will I be shunned again or given a chance?
Warm hands of a family or banned with a slammed door?
See, I wonder when you look down from your heavenly seat
Does you heart beat for women like me
Who are searching for a light but can't succeed?
Ash on fire, now I'm burning!
(We come to lift you high) (we lift you high)
Do you see I’m burning?!
(To make a sacrifice) (we lift you high)
Will you help her burning?!
(For favor on our lives) (we lift you high)
Was I made for burning?!
(Our scarlet sins grow white) (we lift you high)
Leave me burning
Yearning
Dying
Will you leave me trying?
