lyrics

Aren't we all so broken each and every one
Our sail boats a'sinkin in the midst of setting sun
Need we be further familiarized
With the hopelessness of paling water in rising tides
Let me lay my hands on you let me feel your pain
We're all bruised and broken left out in the rain
Let me draw you in let me pray out your name
Let us search you through and through
Don't be ashamed

Believe in, believe in me
As I believe in you
Real love heal your heart
I believe in you

In the midst of sorrow we feel alone
But isn't brokenness what binds us the song that we all know
It's the cup that we all drink of until we're full
It drips down into the belly seeps into the soul
In this great big world see how we relate
We are all in on our way to on our way from this lowly state
In this great big world with all its sticks and stones
We are anything but alone

Let us be broken
For it's the only place from which we can rebuild
Ground down to fine dust
Pour your water in and mold us with your hands
