I have been scarred so deep by life and cold despair,
and brittle bones were broken far beyond repair.
I have leveled lies so deep, the truth may never find.
And inside my faithless heart, I stole things never mine.
If mercy falls upon the broken and poor, Dear Father,
I will see you, there on distant shores.
I have toiled for countless years, and ever felt the cost,
and I`ve been burned by this world`s cold,
like leaves beneath the frost.
On my knees I`ve crawled to you, bleeding myself dry,
But the price of life is more, then I could ever buy.
If mercy falls upon the broken and poor, Dear Father,
I will see you, there on distant shores.
And off of the blocks, I was headstrong and proud,
at the front of the line for the card-carring, highbrowed.
With both eyes fastened tight, yet unscarred from the fight.
Running at full tilt, my sword pulled from it`s hilt.
Its funny how these things can slip away, our frail deeds,
the last will wave good-bye. Its funny how the hope will bleed away,
the citadels we build and fortify. Good-bye.
Night came and I broke my stride, I swallowed hard, but never cried.
When grace was easy to forget, I`d denounce the hypocrites,
casting first stones, killing my own. You would unscale my blind eyes,
and I stood battered, but more wise, fighting to accelerate,
shaking free from crippling weight. With resilience surpassed,
I clawed my way to you at last. And on my knees,
I wept at your feet, I finally believed, that you still loved me.
Healing hands of God`s mercy on our unclean souls once again,
Jesus Christ, Light of the world, burning bright
within our hearts forever. Freedom means love without condition
