broken heart

one of the worst things about sin
is it keeps us all from loving
people

baCK

sometimes there is just no way in the world or hell or heaven
that i am brave enough to tell the truth.

"what can we give when we're all ripped up inside"
i wrote that but if i gave it up to all the world
what would be left of me?
and who would understand my pleading
though i know it all inside
it rips and shreds the core.
i may be ripped but i am also whole.
but though i'm whole i can be ripped.

ha'shir shel mi

there are days when the world seems to fall apart
when we lose sight of christ though he holds our hearts
and our sin takes hold and we fall so hard
and though we repent we listen to our hearts as they tell us "you've fallen too far"

but we were never any better in and of ourselves
we were always fallen blind and hopeless lost and dead
but you came and you sought and you saved our souls
and your love draws us near when we've run so far
so we come to you now falling on our knees
so forgive us
and thank you lord

Lord I want to be here swimming in your sea
in your pleasure so deep that my heart is free
and I know your arms are my deepest rest
and in you I hide when my fears overwhelm and I doubt if your love covers me

but we were never any stronger in and of ourselves
we were always fallen blind and helpless lost and dead
but you came and you sought and you saved our souls
and your love draws us near when we've run so far
so we come to you now falling on our knees
so forgive us
and thank you lord
