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!

~Lifehouse

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

lyrics

Songwriters: Wade, Jason

The broken clock is a comfort, it helps me sleep tonight

Maybe it can stop tomorrow from stealing all my time

I am here still waiting though I still have my doubts

I am damaged at best, like you've already figured out

I'm falling apart, I'm barely breathing

With a broken heart that's still beating

In the pain there is healing

In your name I find meaning

So I'm holdin' on, I'm holdin' on, I'm holdin' on

I'm barely holdin' on to you

The broken locks were a warning you got inside my head

I tried my best to be guarded, I'm an open book instead

And I still see your reflection inside of my eyes

That are looking for purpose, they're still looking for life

I'm falling apart, I'm barely breathing

With a broken heart that's still beating

In the pain is the healing

In your name I find meaning

So I'm holdin' on (I'm still holdin'),

I'm holdin' on (I'm still holdin'),

I'm holdin' on (I'm still holdin')

I'm barely holdin' on to you

I'm hangin' on another day

Just to see what you will throw my way

And I'm hangin' on to the words you say

You said that I will, will be ok

The broken lights on the freeway left me here alone

I may have lost my way now, having forgotten my way home

I'm falling apart, I'm barely breathing

With a broken heart that's still beating

In the pain, there is healing

In your name, I find meaning

So I'm holdin' on (I'm still holdin'),

I'm holdin' on (I'm still holdin'),

I'm holdin' on (I'm still holdin')

I'm barely holdin' on to you

I'm holdin' on (I'm still holdin'),

I'm holdin' on (I'm still holdin'),

I'm barely holdin' on to you.

Today was the kind of day ~where I feel "broken"~ more to come...

"I'm falling apart, I'm barely breathing

With a broken heart that's still beating"
