Prompt / Lyrics
I walked into that church with the smell of my past still on me Didnt sit in the front Kept my head low like a man who knows grace aint cheap I have lied and hurt and run and hid Been the kind of father I swore I would never be But in the quiet I felt something shift Like God was saying you are still someone I can lift And I broke right there in the back of the room Like a storm cloud finally giving in Hes the God of the broken ones The lost the ashamed the coming undone The ones with scars they hide from the light The ones who pray hardest alone at night Hes the God of the fallen the bruised the scarred The ones who learned life the hardest way And if theres hope for a man like me Its only because He sees what I cant see I told Him I was tired of the man Ive been Tired of letting anger be my closest friend Tired of running from the truth Tired of breaking hearts I swore to protect I said God I aint holy I aint clean And He whispered I dont need perfect Just bring Me your fight So I laid down the guilt Laid down the shame Laid down the nights I drank to feel numb Laid down the man I was scared Id become And for the first time in years I felt something real Felt a weight lift off my chest Felt a peace I didnt earn Felt like maybe I could change If I kept choosing to return Hes the God of the broken ones The lost the ashamed the coming undone The ones with scars they hide from the light The ones who pray hardest alone at night Hes the God of the fallen the bruised the scarred The ones who learned life the hardest way And if theres hope for a man like me Its only because He sees what I cant see I aint asking for a crown Just the strength to face what Ive done The courage to be better than the man I was To love without conditions And maybe one day when my kids look my way They will see a man who fought his demons and stayed A man rebuilt by the God of the broken ones A man who didnt quit when the darkness tried to win A man who learned to stand again Now Im learning to walk without hiding my scars Learning to pray without counting the bars Of the prison I built with my own hands Learning to trust what I dont understand I might stumble I might fall But I know God aint scared of it at all Hes seen every failure every tear every sin And still says get up your story aint done And maybe thats the miracle Not that He fixes everything But that He stays when I break again Hes the God of the broken ones The lost the ashamed the coming undone The ones who thought hope already died The ones who tried to hide their lives Hes the God of the fallen the bruised the scarred The ones who learned life the hardest way And if theres grace for a man like me It’s because He makes whole what I can not see.
