God Can Use a Broken Heart

GOD CAN USE A BROKEN HEART
Words & Music by Scott Krippayne & Steve Siler
Romans 8:28

You may stand amid the ruins
unable to go on
The pieces of your life in disarray
There’s more reason to trust
when you’re own strength is gone
and he only needs a little bit of faith

God can use a broken heart
He can take the shades of sorrow
and begin a work of art
At the end of hope
there’s a brand new start
’cause God can use a broken heart

We learn to feel compassion
from the pain that we go through
We learn understanding through our trial
There’s more surface to touch
when a heart breaks in two
and we’re as helpless as a little child

CHORUS

A broken heart is tender
and open enough
for God to fill the emptiness with love
