Broken

[Julie1983]

I look at my wrists, I see the scars

I search my soul, I know my shame

I've been led by the blind and beaten down by sin

I should have died, but You wouldn't let them win

I see Your hands, the holes in Your palms

I know your glory has overcome all pain

I turn to You Lord, in my broken suffering

A love unimaginable, how can this be?

In all my wretchedness, You reached out to save me

A soul so pure, my hero, Your truth

The word of God that whispered to my heart setting me free

As I tripped over trials, in deathly darkness

I searched for the way

Your love opened my soul and my eyes lit up with hope

You showed me a path that I can now take

Thanks to Your selfless sacrifice

This sheep shall not fade

I toddle like a baby, into Your strong hands

I am Yours, You have made me new again

Paralized with tears, my repentance shakes my being

Then You kiss my tears away and I am no longer unclean

Thank you Father, my cross I'll bear

'Till the day I go home, when You shout from the sky

All Your children will run to You with a happy cry

And there I'll be, tucked safely under Your wing

As we fly away, this life will have seemed like a dream

I will never forget how You gave Yourself for me

I love you Lord Jesus

[Fragrant Grace]

He healeth the broken in heart, and bindeth up their wounds.
He telleth the number of the stars;
He calleth them all by their names.
Great is our Lord, and of great power:
His understanding is infinite.

Psalm 147: 3-5


Praise the Lord......He heals the broken and restores.
Your poem talks of His tender love and may you ever rejoice in that love sister.

Blessings

Julia


Ps: Just wondering why you called it Broken rather than what He has done for you ie: Redeemed, Restored




He shall feed His flock like a shepherd: He shall gather the lambs with His arm, and carry them in His bosom
Isaiah 40:11

 

[Christ4Ever]

I'll take a stab at why broken.

Because one had to be broken first, before being redeemed, or restored.

Another good one Julie!
