Broken Praise (JOB) |
| If one more person takes my hand and tries to say they understand |
| Tells me there’s a bigger plan that I’m not meant to see |
| If one more person dares suggest that I held something unconfessed |
| Tries to make the dots connect from righteousness to easy street |
| Well I, I won’t deny I’ve relied on some assumptions |
| A man’s honest life entitles him to something |
| But who am I to make demands of the God of Abraham? |
| And who are You that You would choose to answer me with mercy new |
| How many more will wander past to find me here among the ashes |
| Will you hold me? |
| Will you stay? |
| So I can raise this broken praise to You |
| Who else will see my suffering as one more opportunity |
| To educate; |
| to help me see all my flawed theology |
| If one more well intentioned friend tries to tie up my loose ends |
| Hoping to, with rug and broom, sweep awkward moments from the room |
| But I, I can’t forget, I have begged just like a madman |
| For my chance to die and never have to face the morning |
| But You were the One who filled my cup |
| And You were the One who let it spill |
| So blessed be your Holy name if you never fill it up again |
| If this is where my story ends, just give me one more breathe to say |
| Hallelujah, Hallelujah |
| Hallelujah, Hallelujah |
| Hallelujah, Hallelujah |
