“Scars”
Forever Seared on my Heart
The scars remind us not of the pain, but that we survived. We came out on the other side of what was meant to destroy us. “And these wounds are a story You’ll use.” We become champions of our darkness, which allows us to be a light for others.
This song is so therapeutic and healing. Everyone has darkness that they have survived. Everyone has deep scars to remind them of a time they probably wish they could forget. I had to learn to be thankful for mine and see the beauty in how those scars transformed me. After reading the lyrics below, give the song a listen here.
“Scars”
Waking up to a new sunrise
Looking back from the other side
I can see now with open eyes
Darkest water and deepest pain
I wouldn't trade it for anything
Cause my brokenness brought me to You
And these wounds are a story You'll use
So I'm thankful for the scars
'Cause without them I wouldn't know Your heart
And I know they'll always tell of who You are
So forever I am thankful for the scars
Now I'm standing in confidence
With the strength of Your faithfulness
And I'm not who I was before
No, I don't have to fear anymore
So I'm thankful for the scars
'Cause without them I wouldn't know Your heart
And I know they'll always tell of who You are
So forever I am thankful for the scars
I can see, I can see
How You delivered me
In Your hands, In Your feet
I found my victory
I can see, I can see
How You delivered me
In Your hands, In Your feet
I found my victory
I'm thankful for Your scars
'Cause without them I wouldn't know Your heart
And with my life I'll tell of who You are
So forever I am thankful
I'm thankful for the scars
'Cause without them I wouldn't know Your heart
And I know they'll always tell of who You are
So forever I am thankful for the scars
So forever I am thankful for the scars
“Your scars are someone else’s signs of hope.”
