Loss

How do you deal with Loss?
Only at the foot of the cross
I know
But... how do you deal with loss

What do you do when you wake up crying
And each day you feel like dying
How do you deal with Loss?
Only at the foot of the cross

I know
But I forget when I'm asleep
My heart forgets
I dream and wake with regrets

How do you tear down the memories of your heart
Tell me how
I want to know
How do you deal with heartache
betrayal
When the shock wears off
When the anger fades
When all that's left are tears and pain
How do you deal with heartache

What do you do when even the stares of onlookers
can't keep your tears at bay
What can you do?
What can you say

Lord cover me with ashes
break my skin with new wine
Come to me like oil
mix your soul with mine

Hold me in your arms
capture every tear
tell me that you love me
tell me that you're near

Broken
Shattered
Scared
Left bleeding in my tears
come to me with comfort
quiet all my fears

Broken
Shattered
Scared
But you meet me here
You've taken all my nothing
its you who've brought me here

The place of death
The place of loss
The place of so much pain
that flows through me like water
comes to me like rain

It is here you cleanse me
here you bring me low
You teach me that I need you
You teach me what I know

Here the place
where I have nothing
and I am nothing too
It is here you bring me
to give me hope, just in you

Here you brought me
and here I am
Lord here I am
fill me
take me
use me
the nothing that I am
