song

i wrote a song about a month ago. pretty much sums up my past 5 months. (this is the more optimistic version of the song) i recorded it with my "leaving room" band, but it's a very rough recording, so i'll wait til we have one a little better recording before i share it.

I can barely stand
I can barely breath right now...
But I trust You're there,
You're holding my heart.

I've got a broken heart.
I never knew I could feel this way.
Tears have become my nights,
Thank God that there is hope for a new day.

'Cuz you heal the brokenhearted,
And bind up all their wounds.
You're the father of the fatherless
And the keeper of my soul, of my soul

Why is it so hard to trust?
Why does my intellect betray my trust?
This world would tear me down,
If I'd just give it the chance-- but You won't.

'Cuz you heal the brokenhearted
And bind up all their wounds.
You're the father of the fatherless
And the keeper of my soul

He says "Behold I'm with you, will keep you
with me, wherever you may go. I created all
the stars and gave them all their names, so how
could I not just heal your broken heart? Just
give me the chance."

Thank You for healing the brokenhearted,
And binding up our wounds.
You're the father of the fatherless,
And the keeper of my soul, of my soul.
