Give Thanks for a Broken Heart - Martin Smith

You see the scars I try to hide

Every wound a story I have cried

You always love me, it never ends

'Cause You are not an ordinary friend

What I thought would take me under

Has led me back to You

Every time that I feel I’m falling apart

I give thanks for a broken heart

You’re never weary of my complaints

Believing me when I am losing faith

What is shattered, You will mend

'Cause You are not an ordinary friend

Every battle leaves us fragile

And fear comes in the night

Though the weight of this suffering may never depart

I give thanks for a broken heart

And You’re the fortress where I’m safe

Covering the moments that I break

You never fight, You just defend

You’ve been the most extraordinary friend

And I will live forever, to know You as my God

My reward is to know that we’re never apart

I give thanks for a broken heart

So I’m singing a song for the One that I love

You’re the joy of a broken heart

Your joy, Your joy, Your joy

Your joy

Your joy, Your joy, my soul

Your joy, ohh

Thank You, thank You

Thank You for it all

Thank You, thank You

Thank You for it all

Oh, thank You, thank You

Thank You for it all

Oh, thank You, thank You

Thank You for it all

And I hear the sound of Your voice

I feel Your breath in my lungs

I feel the joy in my bones

Forever I’ll sing, forever I’ll sing

I feel the wonder of love

I know the kindness of God

I join with the angels above

Forever I’ll sing, forever I’ll sing for You
