The Hurt and The Healer

This song by MercyMe has spoken volumes to my soul today.  I can't describe what a beautiful picture this paints of this momma's heart in this season. I've tried so hard to find the words to convey how intricately woven the deep hurt and miraculous hope I'm experiecing through this journey are, and just this morning on the radio, I found that MercyMe has so beautifully already done it for me. Praise Jesus for amazing singers and songwriters who can give a girl a break from racking the brain for just the right words to say. Every single word is such a reflection of my heart. Every. single. word.

Why?
The question that is never far away
The healing doesn’t come from the explained
Jesus please don’t let this go in vain
You’re all I have
All that remains

So here I am
What’s left of me
Where glory meets my suffering

I’m alive
Even though a part of me has died
You take my heart and breathe it back to life
I’ve fallen into Your arms open wide
When the hurt and The Healer collide

Breathe
Sometimes I feel it’s all that I can do
Pain so deep that I can hardly move
Just keep my eyes completely fixed on You
Lord take hold and pull me through

So here I am
What’s left of me
Where glory meets my suffering

I’m alive
Even though a part of me has died
You take my heart and breathe it back to life
I’ve fallen into your arms open wide
When the hurt and The Healer collide

It’s the moment when humanity
Is overcome by majesty
When grace is ushered in for good
And all the scars are understood
When mercy takes its rightful place
And all these questions fade away
When out of the weakness we must bow
And hear You say “It’s over now”

I’m alive
Even though a part of me has died
You take my heart and breathe it back to life
I’ve fallen into your arms open wide
When the hurt and The Healer collide

Jesus come and break my fear
Awake my heart and take my tears
Find Your glory even here
When the hurt and The Healer collide

Jesus come and break my fear
Awake my heart and take my tears
Find Your glory even here
