All My Scars

  

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

We each have scars we bear in life,

I have more than a few,

But my scars stand as reminders

Of all You’ve brought me through.

 

I count each one a victory,

I learned from every one,

And I have grown around each scar

By following Your Son.

 

This life was never meant to be

An easy one, I know.

I stand as living proof of that.

I have the scars to show.

 

And I suspect I’ll have some more

Before my life is through,

These scars that show how often, Lord,

I have relied on You.

 

2 Corinthians 1:9

Indeed, we felt that we had received the sentence of death. But that was to make us rely not on ourselves but on God who raises the dead.
