Scattered Pieces

The most sorrowful sound ever heard

Was when Eden fell and God’s heart broke and scattered all over the world

A brilliant puzzle piece knocked from table to floor

Maybe all of history is the story of Him

Putting it back together again

Why do we all long for peace so bad?

Why do we all feel orphaned and lost?

One world, one dream of redemption

We are all singing the same broken song

We are all scattered puzzle pieces waiting to belong

Colors and shapes of hopes and dreams

Grasped in a tight fist we tear the edges

From birth to love to frailty

We’ve got this game down

Bend but don’t break

Hope but don’t risk

Cover your blemishes and wear this frayed red gown

Why do we all long for peace so bad?

Why do we all feel orphaned and lost?

One world, one dream of redemption

We are all singing the same broken song

We are all scattered puzzle pieces waiting to belong

Maybe the breaking will lead to the mending

Maybe the breaking will lead to the mending

I am not afraid of a broken heart

This is redemption
