Oh Broken Son!
Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
Weary captive, arise, wrecked and wounded Hemmed inside a hidden hold These roaming shoulders broke from a pain heavy enough to disappear into And when the bitter cold cut away memories of who I once was I forgot how to believe It's easy to get lost in the night To lose the language of redemption across the wild wilderness of white I've wandered into But no matter where I go To the mountains and rivers and over blankets of snow covering spring's meadow The past keeps pulling at my sleeve, weeping Ruby-eyed and heavy-breathed This is a pain even his promises can't reach Oh my love I pray you'll remember in December who I once was And not what I became Still searching Stumbling down mountains forested by snow-shrouded spruce Still staggering Every cough caught with color-drained hands Cold-boned and numb, chest emptied by the burn of frozen breath Still shaking These shoulders aching My soul still sobbing, sweet Savior I'm so sorry for the sorrow I've sent into the spirits of those I love Please carry me home Then a band of clouds begins bubbling just beyond the milky mountaintop before paling into the pink bloom of morning Purple threads stitching the broken night Oh beloved The breadth of your echoed brilliance leaves me gasping Low and beholding But you've spent your splendor on a stricken man Sick and barely breathing Because every beauty burdened by the war raging inside my bones Breaks Slantwise and in sheets The snowfall quickens as fog thickens over a languished land littered with whispers and wonders as I wander deeper into a strange cold smoothing over my skin I stumble with shock, falling The cold stinging but sweetly singing as it crushes every mountain and empties every river and removes the shame from my shoulders and spins it into salvation Suffocating Struggling with this surrender But sweet Savior Despite my fight My every hope Though faint and few Rest inside the promise of you My son Stubborn and strong Rise before your sorrow and watch the suffering melt into something new
