FORESAKING

FORESAKING
by Some Guy

I broke. And you were there to mend me
You spoke, a Word of Truth to send me
You gave, your own blood to defend me
But I looked and saw an empty branch

I broke. And my life poured out like wine from a glass
You spoke, like light from your earthly flask
You gave, but the healing would not end fast
My life was at an end.

I broke, and you opened the wound some more
You Spoke, and through me each word new tore
You gave, a glimpse of you strength before
I was crushed under your Spirit

I broke, and you tore away my idols
You spoke, “no turning away from trials”
You gave, a chance with each new vial
And defenseless I was ravaged

You healed, what you had let be broken
You built, upon your true work spoken
You gave, A new and terrible holding
A Love worth all foresaking
