I have a folder of writings that I have put together over the years. Over the last couple of months I have pulled a lot of things out from years ago. This is another one of those. I wrote this in 2001. I hope you enjoy.
Verse 1
Dirty, dusty, broken in two. My heart, my life, I am left with no excuse. I struggle, I fight, I stumble to the ground. My enemy’s victories seem hands down.
But I pick up again with a hope to carry on. I must conquer defeat before my chances are gone.
Chorus
I don’t want to be broken anymore. I want to rise up anew. I don’t want to be broken anymore. I want to live my life to glorify You. To praise You forever, to lift up my hands. Father hear me now, help me stand……Unbroken.
Verse 2
I have lived life in my own way and I lie here now in this shattered state. I have tried to do the best I can and yet I find my self further back than when I began
Lord help me now to serve You once again. I want to experience Your grace to know Your love that has no end.
Chorus
I don’t want to be broken anymore. I want to rise up anew. I don’t want to be broken anymore. I want to live my life to glorify You. To praise You forever, to lift up my hands. Father hear me now, help me stand……Unbroken.
Tag
If we confess our sins, just like your word said You are faithful and just to forgive us again. I want more than forgiveness, I want a heart that’s new. I want to be with You forever, until eternity is through
Chorus
I don’t want to be broken anymore. I want to rise up anew. I don’t want to be broken anymore. I want to live my life to glorify You. To praise You forever, to lift up my hands. Father hear me now, help me stand……Unbroken.
