Broken Things
I wonder if God takes broken things
 And makes them new again
 And helps them laugh again
 And lets them sing again
 
 I wonder if He takes all the world
 And holds it to His ear
 And stands outside its door
 And waits for us to hear
 
 I wonder
 I wonder
 I wonder 
 
 I wonder if He sees us 
 When we're crying out for mercy
 When our souls are stained for good
 And our passions become empty
 
 I wonder if each mistake
 Feels like a thorn inside His heart
 That hurts and aches 
 And makes the memories come
 
 I wonder how He feels
 When we take all that's pure and real
 And make it fake
 And make it break
 
 I wonder when God made us
 Were we already His own?
 Did He cradle us inside a love
 Mothers haven't known
 
 I wonder if He hopes 
 That we'll come back into His arms
 And leave behind our darkness
 And mute out all alarms
 
 I wonder if He'll let us
 Carry up our broken things
 So He can make them new
 And help them laugh
 And maybe even sing
 
 I wonder
 I wonder
 I wonder
