Heal The Wound

[Verse 1]
I used to wish that I could rewrite history
I used to dream that each mistake could be erased
That I could just pretend, I never knew the me back then
I used to pray that You would take this shame away
Hide all the evidence of who I've been
But it's the memory of the place You brought me from
That keeps me on my knees
And even though I'm free

[Chorus 1]
Heal the wound but leave the scar
A reminder of how merciful You are
I am broken, torn apart
Take the pieces of this heart
Heal the wound but leave the scar

[Verse 2]
I have not lived a life that boasts of anything
I don't take pride in what I bring
But I'll build an altar with the rubble that You found me in
And every stone will sing of what You can redeem

[Chorus 2]
Heal the wound but leave the scar
A reminder of how merciful You are
I am broken, torn apart
Take the pieces of this heart

[Bridge]
Don't let me forget
Everything You've done for me
Don't let me forget
The beauty in the suffering

[Chorus 3]
Heal the wound but leave the scar
A reminder of how merciful You are
I am broken, torn apart
Take the pieces of this heart

Heal the wound but leave the scar
A reminder of how merciful You are
I am broken, torn apart
Take the pieces of this heart
Heal the wound but leave... the scar
