Porcelain
Hey you guys! Another song...and it has a name! God has given me these words and I feel that I should share them! I feel slightly awkward putting these songs on facebook for you to listen to because most of the songs I write never leave my room. They usually go downstairs and my family hears them but that is usually as far as they travel. I do not put them on here to get praise. The glory is not mine. ALL THE GLORY AND HONOR GOES TO JESUS CHRIST! I love HIM! I began writing this song in 2005. I put it aside and forgot about it until recently when i finished it. I am thinking that after you have listened to this song and the other one I posted, you probably think I am a really hurt and sad person since both of these songs include tears and hurt. I'm not. I've never really been hurt and I don't get sad often ... I never cry but I love songs like this. Healing songs. Songs that rely on God's love and grace. I hope you enjoy and thank you for listening!
Here are the lyrics:
Verse 1:
I am a broken piece of porcelain
Broken me is all I see
I pick myself up piece by piece
Why is it so hard to breathe?
Trying to wipe away the past
Forever it will last
Bruised and scarred I stand
Tears dampen my hands
Chorus:
I've always been strong
I've always been able to hold my own
So why was I so easily
Brought down to my knees
Verse 2:
Tired of being hurt
Sick of the sting
Still unexpectedly *he comes
Only to beat me
Verse 3:
Lord Jesus I ask you please
Come and help me to my feet
I'm falling so quickly
Only you can save the shattered pieces
Only you can save me
Bridge:
You're my strength and You're my peace
