Every Beat Of My Broken Heart

Every Beat Of My Broken Heart

This is not what I asked, not what I prayed for
Are You listening now
‘Cause all that I’ve built, all that I’ve bled for
Is coming undone





But what if it had to be broken
Before my heart could be open





Maybe the shattered parts are the places where Your love starts
And now I am closer to where You are with every beat of my broken heart





Maybe it’s not what I would’ve chosen, and I won’t understand
But I’m trusting You now ’cause all that I know is
I am safe in Your hands





But what if it had to be broken
Before my heart could be open





Maybe the shattered parts are the places where Your love starts
And now I am closer to where You are with every beat of my broken heart
Mercy is here with me even if I can’t see it now
I am closer to where You are with every beat of my broken heart





So break me all the way
‘Til we are face to face
When Your work in me is through
And all that’s left is You





I am closer to where You are
With every beat of my broken
Beat of my broken heart
