(Verse 1)
I’ve been draggin’ these chains down a red dirt road,
Trying to fix my soul with a broken code
Smiles wear thin, yeah, nights get long,
Laughing on the outside, barely hanging on
Mama said, “Boy, don’t lose your way,
There’s a Healer listening when you pray”
(Bridge)
I’ve tried whiskey, tried willpower, tried running far
But grace found me right where my pieces are
(Chorus)
He heals the brokenhearted, stitches up the scars
Breathes life into the dust we are
When I’m weak, He’s strong, when I fall, He stays
By His wounds, I’m not the same
Chains fall off, shame don’t stand a chance
Truth rolls in like a second chance
Yeah, I live, I move, I rise again
By His wounds… I’m healed, amen
(Verse 2)
I’ve seen light hit blind eyes open wide
Seen hope walk in where hope had died
Raised up hearts that were six feet deep
Called my name when I couldn’t speak
Funny how mercy don’t cost a dime
Freely given, every single time
(Bridge)
I laid my sins out in the open air
Found out love was already there
(Chorus)
He heals the brokenhearted, stitches up the scars
Breathes life into the dust we are
When I’m weak, He’s strong, when I fall, He stays
By His wounds, I’m not the same
Chains fall off, shame don’t stand a chance
Truth rolls in like a second chance
Yeah, I live, I move, I rise again
By His wounds… I’m healed, amen
(Bridge)
No fear in my bones now, peace in my chest
Joy like medicine, I’m learning to rest
Kingdom’s close, yeah, heaven’s near
I hear His voice, it’s loud and clear
If I abide and I just believe
He’s doing more than I can see
(Chorus)
He heals the brokenhearted, stitches up the scars
Breathes life into the dust we are
When I’m weak, He’s strong, when I fall, He stays
By His wounds, I’m not the same
Chains fall off, shame don’t stand a chance
Truth rolls in like a second chance
Yeah, I live, I move, I rise again
By His wounds… I’m healed, amen
(Chorus)
He heals the brokenhearted, lifts the bowed-down low
Gives strength to the weary soul
When the night’s cold and the road won’t bend
He’s the Alpha, the start and end
I can do all things, I stand unashamed
Not by my power, not by my name
Every grave loses, every lie breaks
By His wounds… I’m healed by grace
(Outro)
So I’ll seek His face till my last breath fades
Heart full of praise on my best and worst days
Yeah, the truth set me free somehow
And I’m walking in that freedom now
