Broken, but to God its Beautiful

On my way through glorious Wyoming I heard a song on the radio that really struck me. Now my family listens to Klove and we managed to find the station in Wyoming. I was sitting in the back seat doing my Sudoku puzzles and reading a great book- Searching for God knows what. When this song came on the radio that stuck me- not by the rhythm or the beat or the tune, but the words. It turns out its a new song by Mark Shultz and its called Broken and Beautiful. I really liked it because it was more a song that was spoken, then the chorus was song like but here are the words-


There's a businessman
There's a widowed wife
A smiling face with a shattered life
A teenage girl with a choice to make
It's crowded here in church today

And the preacher says as the sermon end
sPlease close your eyes
Bow your heads
Is there anyone in need of prayer
Oh Jesus wants to meet you here

'Cuz we all fall short and we all have sinned
But where you left,
God's grace begins

(Chorus)
It's beautiful
Beautiful
Come as you are surrender your heart
Broken and beautiful

Well, he'd never been to church before
but he came today as a last resort
His world was crashing in
and he was suffocating in his sin

but tears rolled down as hope rushed in
He closed his eyes Raised his hand
Worshipping the God who can bring him back to life again and

(Chorus)
It's beautiful
Beautiful
Come as you are surrender your hear
tBroken and beautiful
Beautiful
Come as you are surrender your heart

'Cuz there's nothing more beautiful than God
and when his sons and daughters come broken
Broken and beautiful

Hallelujah
Hallelujah
come as you are
Hallelujah Hallelujah
Come as you are Broken and beautiful
Beautiful
Come as you are Surrender your heart
Broken and beautiful
Beautiful
Come as you are S
surrender your hear
tBroken and beautiful
Come as you are
Broken and beautiful
(Hallelujah)Beautiful (Hallelujah)
Come as you are Surrender your heart
Broken and beautifu
lBroken and beautiful
Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
Beautiful

I liked this song because, when we are broken I don't think we think that God sees us as beautiful, but instead as an ugly repulsive little creature. But to Gods eyes, no matter what struggle we have, or what we are going through to God we are beautiful. No matter what we've done or all that we could ever do, to God we are his ( he she or it, whoever God is) beautiful children, and threes nothing better than coming to Him with a broken heart.

Broken, but still oh so Beautiful.
