Lyrics
(Soft guitars weave through a gentle synth backdrop; vocals enter like a whisper.)
The silence breaks beneath the weight,
A story etched in fragile clay.
These scars, they speak, they call my name,
A fragile heart, a burning flame.
The marks I hide, they tell of pain,
Of battles fought, of losses gained.
Each wound a line upon the skin,
Each breath a war I’m holding in.
But hands outstretched, with scars like mine,
Whisper, “Beloved, you’re defined.”
The nails that tore, the blood that ran,
Wrote mercy’s song across His hands.
These scars, a canvas for mercy's song,
A map of grace where I belong.
What once was broken now declares:
Love redeems the scars we bear.
The wounds that held me now set me free,
A mark of His identity.
His hands remind me I'm held there,
Etched forever—the scars we bear.
The weight of shame once crushed my soul,
A shattered life I couldn't hold.
But now I see through tear-stained eyes,
The cracks that gleam with gold refined.
Your scars of love, they call me near,
Each mark a word: "Do not fear."
I'm carved within Your sovereign hands,
A masterpiece of heaven's plan.
(Chant-like vocals over tribal rhythms and swelling chords.)
Your hands were pierced to set me free,
Love's imprint for eternity.
The wounds I feared are now my song,
They shout of grace; they make me strong.
These scars, a canvas for mercy's song,
A map of grace where I belong.
What once was broken now declares:
Love redeems the scars we bear.
The wounds that held me now set me free,
A mark of His identity.
His hands remind me I'm held there,
Etched forever—the scars we bear.
(Vocals stripped back over soft piano and swelling strings.)
The palms that bore my name in blood,
The crimson tide, the cleansing flood.
No greater love, no deeper care—
Through His scars, my life repaired.
(Soft guitars return, fading into silence.)
These scars I bear, they no longer bleed,
For love has turned my pain to seed.
Where mercy blooms, where grace belongs,
These scars now sing redemption’s song.
