Break This Heart

Laughter comes through heartache
Growing comes through pain
And Lord, I know You're slowly
Teaching me
I have to lose to gain
I've been all too careful
Of vessels and of jars
So won't you let your love
Break through the walls
Releasing what you are

Chorus:
Break this heart
Let it be open
I know it is no good
Till all the bitterness is gone
Make my life
A vessel that's broken
So I can someday help
The one who falls

There's nothing worse than nothing
To live yet not to feel
I've been numb to all the suffering
A heart as cold as steel
Make me strong and tender
Take away my fears
And won't You give me holy insight, Lord
And wash my eyes with tears

Repeat Chorus Twice

So I came someday help
The one who falls
