broken things,
He mends the heart that's shattered,
and gives it songs to sing.
He pieces it together with
His sweet gracious touch;
He mends the heart that's broken
because He loves so much.
He mends the broken spirit,
then lifts that spirit up,
And pours the oil of gladness
into the upturned cup.
The broken lives He reshapes...
Those wrecked by sin,
When in their crushed condition
they turn in faith to Him
The broken dreams that crumble
to ashes at our feet,
That seemed so fair and lovely,
That made life taste more sweet.
Those broken dreams He rebuilds
And fashions them anew...
Then gives us faith to trust Him
To see new dreams come true.
What of the broken plans?
The broken health that comes?
Is He not ever mindful when lifes
swift pendulum.
Dashes to scattered pieces the plans
that we have made?
Above it all, He whispers -
"I shall come to your aid."
He restores broken spirits,
Binds broken hearts, and dreams,
Repairs the shattered pages of lives
that He redeems.
He stands ready to help us
No matter what life brings
Because He specializes in
mending broken things!
