Monday's Mourning Ministry

My Heart is Broken

My Heart is Broken

My heart is broken...

A tender token

Of my love for you.

Love breaks hearts open,

As God has spoken,

"Come, suffer for Me."

So, as I suffer ~

This grieving mother ~

God's love breaks open

On this mother broken...

Tender words spoken,

Deep hurt evoking,

Like His at Calvary...

His Father-heart broken~

Love suffered...for you and me...

I take up my cross

To follow Thee:

Broken, poured out for Thee,

Dying, I'll live for Thee!

How long have I

Been in this storm

So overwhelmed by the ocean's shapeless form

Water's getting harder to tread

With these waves crashing over my head

If I could just see you

Everything would be alright

If I'd see you this darkness

Would turn to light

And I will walk on water

And you will catch me if I fall

And I will get lost into your eyes

I know everything will be alright

I know everything IS alright

I know you didn't

Bring me out here to drown

So why am I ten feet under and upside down

Barely surviving has become my purpose

'Cause I'm so used to living underneath the surface

If I could just see you

Everything would be alright

If I see you this darkness would turn to light

And I will walk on water

And you will catch me if I fall

And I will get lost into your eyes

I know everything will be alright

And I will walk on water

And you will catch me if I fall

And I will get lost into your eyes

I know everything will be alright

I know everything IS alright

Everything's alright ~ yeah

Everything's alright.

(Jesus speaking) - "I will show (Paul) how much he must suffer for My name."

~Acts 9:16

(Paul later speaking to fellow-believers in a city called Philippi) -

For it has been granted to you on behalf of Christ not only to believe on Him, but also to suffer for Him, since you are going through the same struggle you saw I had, and now hear that I still have.

~Philippians 1:29-30
