Grow Around the Scars

Don’t let the pain you face today
Steal your bright tomorrows.
Rise up and grow around the pain,
For time will ease your sorrows.
Although the pain may leave a scar,
That scar’s a badge of pride.
It means that, when the worst came on,
You didn’t run and hide.
So let those scars remind you of
The lessons life can bring;
Then grow around the fading scar,
Lift up your arms and sing!

Daniel 4:22

Your Majesty, you are that tree! You have become great and strong; your greatness has grown until it reaches the sky, and your dominion extends to distant parts of the earth.
