pieces

There are some times in our lives when all we want to do is give up, when we feel like we've been torn into so many pieces that there is nothing left. We've all hit that point, we've all faced those things that bring us down to that lowest level. The thing is though, when we fall so hard, when we're brought to our knees, we're in the perfect position to pray. It's when we've fallen so far that we can see how much we need help, trying to rebuild yourself on your own is an insurmountable task. How lucky for us that there is a way prepared to help us become whole again. I have a firm belief and faith in my Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, and I know that He can help us overcome anything that threatens to pull us down. He wants to help us and He wants us to be better.
I tried so hard
Thought I could do this on my own
I’ve lost so much along the way

Then I see your face
I know I’m finally yours
I find everything
I thought I lost before
You call my name
I come to you in pieces
So you can make me whole

I’ve come undone
But you make sense of who I am
Like puzzle pieces in your hand

When I see your face
I know I’m finally yours
I find everything
I thought I lost before
You call my name
I come to you in pieces
So you can make me whole

He wants to help us become whole once again.

we'll be okay

The night is long over, but we're all still wide awake.
Huddled together, just hoping this moment won't fade away.
The sunlight makes it's way up the field toward us again,
marking the end of this.

Because everyone's going their separate ways,
sometimes things just change,
but we'll never forget who we were that day
so don't be afraid, cause we'll be okay.

Carved out our love and we all broke our hearts together.
These are the times that define who we are forever.
It's hard to leave, you're just memories that I'm thinking of
that mark the end of this.

Because everyone's going their separate ways,
sometimes things just change,
but we'll never forget who we were that day
so don't be afraid, cause we'll be okay.

and sometimes it's hard when everything changes,
sometimes it feels like the world's unfolding.
This is when the impossible becomes possible.

It's hard to leave, you're just memories that I'm thinking of
that mark the end of this.

Because everyone's going their separate ways,
sometimes things just change,
but we'll never forget who we were that day
so don't be afraid, cause we'll be okay.

So unafraid we hadn't lived,
we'll be okay.
Without a care in the whole world,
we'll be okay.
