The Song I Have Playing On Repeat

Matthew West
All The Broken Pieces

Did you feel, feel it break
From all the weight of your mistake?
You never knew how much it cost
Feels like your innocence is lost

So much for the perfect life
So much for the perfect day
It's like no matter how you try
Perfection's just too far away

So lift them up to Me
All the broken pieces
All the broken pieces of your life

To Me
All the broken pieces
All the broken pieces of your life

Did you hear what I said?
Did you read the words I wrote down in red?
I was broken once for you
And no one loves you like I do

And that's the beauty of this grace
It can put the pieces back in place

And shine reflections of forgiveness
In a million different ways

'Cause I can take even your greatest mistake
Every scar, every tear, every break
And I can turn it into something
More beautiful than you have ever seen

All your broken pieces
I'll put them back together, yeah
Are you broken, are you broken?

Just lift them up to Me
All the broken pieces
Give all the broken pieces of your life

Lift them up to Me
Let Me carry you
I will take your pieces
And put them back together
Dear Lord,
Take all my broken pieces. Only You can carry their weight and turn them into something new. Help me to seek You and not search for perfection. Lord, show me Your grace. The grace that I deserve. The grace that You give without question. Let Your love shine through me.
In Your Holy name I pray.
Amen
