What are these scars deep in my heart
when will they heal, the pain depart
I look to him, my savior grand
he looks at me and takes my hand
he lifts me up whenever I fall
he helps me up when I hit the wall
he shows me the path to find my way on
where in the darkness the pathway seems gone
He helps my heart heal with greatest of care
guiding me daily he always is there
What are these scars deep in my heart
how long until I find a new start
he guides the way and shows me new hope
learning from trials and just how to cope
he gives me his plan redeems me from sin
and gives me a chance to once more begin
What are these scars deep in my heart
they are where evil has marked on that part
he knows my pain he knows my tears
my inner secrets, my dreams and my fears
he guides the way to come back to him
no more in spirit to have scars so grim
he loves us enough to take those away
if we just trust him and follow his way
What are these scars deep in my soul
they are but a moment until I am whole
he knows of the pain, the burdens of life
he knows of the trials that cut like a knife
he loves each of us and knows of each tear
and he will be there when we need him most near
No more to bear the scars of this earth
each spirit here loved and of great worth
he gave us his heart so perfect and whole
to remove up in heaven the scars on our soul.
He loves us so much there is no way to say
how the heart of the savior takes our pain away
his love for us great both big and the small
he only asks one thing to follow his call.
Come follow him who makes the heart whole
our savior redeemor the balm of my soul.

This was inspired by tonights fireside, on the scars of the soul.  I hope you enjoy it!
