Heal the Wound

I used to wish that I could rewrite history
 I used to dream that each mistake could be erased
 Then I could just pretend
 I never knew the me back then
 I used to pray that You would take this shame away
 Hide all the evidence of who I've been
 But it's the memory of the place You brought me from
 That keeps me on my knees and even though I'm free
 Heal the wound but leave the scar
 A reminder of how merciful You are
 I am broken, torn apart, take the pieces of this heart
 And heal the wound but leave the scar
 ♪
 I have not lived a life that boasts of anything
 I don't take pride in what I bring
 But I'll build an altar with the rubble that You've found me in
 And every stone will sing of what You can redeem
 Heal the wound but leave the scar
 A reminder of how merciful You are
 I am broken, torn apart, take the pieces of this heart
 And heal the wound but leave the scar
 Don't let me forget
 Everything You've done for me
 Don't let me forget
 The beauty in the suffering
 Heal the wound but leave the scar
 A reminder of how merciful You are
 I am broken, torn apart, take the pieces of this heart
 Heal the wound but leave the scar
 Heal the wound but leave the scar
 A reminder of how merciful You are
 I am broken, torn apart, take the pieces of this heart
 And heal the wound but leave the scar, leave the scar
