Lyrics
The evening grew darker as the day turned to night,
Those feelings of loneliness and being unloved all rushed back in as I reached over to turn off the light.
Every night is a battle of hurtful words that plague my mind;
I cried out, “My Lord, I am broken. I surrender all to thee. Father, are you here? If so, will you please help me?”
As I fell into a slumber, he whispered in my ear,
“Do not despair, and you are safe because I am here.
Now, go to sleep, my child, and know I am always near!”
The warmth of the morning sun starts a new day,
Deep in my thoughts, I heard him say, “Get yourself up,
Your day has begun, and everything will be okay.
You are healed; fret no more,
The pain of those wounds are no more.
We are bruised, not broken; watch them fade away.
These are the words spoken and meant for every day.
The evening grew darker as the day turned to night,
Those feelings of loneliness and being unloved all rushed back in as I reached over to turn off the light.
Every night is a battle of hurtful words that plague my mind;
I cried out, “My Lord, I am broken. I surrender all to thee. Father, are you here? If so, will you please help me?”
As I fell into a slumber, he whispered in my ear,
“Do not despair, and you are safe because I am here.
Now, go to sleep, my child, and know I am always near!”
The warmth of the morning sun starts a new day,
Deep in my thoughts, I heard him say, “Get yourself up,
Your day has begun, and everything will be okay.
You are healed; fret no more,
The pain of those wounds are no more.
We are bruised, not broken; watch them fade away.
These are the words spoken and meant for every day.
