Close to the Broken (Worship)

###

I’ve walked through nights I couldn’t pray

Held my breath just to make it through the day

Tears fell like rain, silence all around

But even in the silence, I heard the sound

Of mercy falling soft like morning dew

A whisper in the dark that carried truth

You are close to the broken, near to my pain

You never left me, You knew my name

When my heart was shattered, when hope ran dry

You held my soul and heard my cry

You are close to the broken

Oh Lord, You never let go

I’ve tried to stand on my own feet

But I fall every time without Your peace

Still, You come with arms open wide

Even when I run, You don’t hide

Your grace finds me where I am

You’re not a distant God, You understand

You are close to the broken, near to my pain

You never left me, You knew my name

When my heart was shattered, when hope ran dry

You held my soul and heard my cry

You are close to the broken

Oh Lord, You never let go

Even in the ashes, I find You there

In every loss, You answer prayer

Not with thunder, not with flame

But with love that always stays

You are close to the broken, near to my pain

Right in the heartache, You still remain

When the night surrounds me, I won’t fear

Your perfect love is always near

You are close to the broken

Oh Lord, You never let go

You never let go…

You are close to the broken.
