How to get over the Greatest Hurt

SCARS by Dora J. Hammer

Scars, here’s a place where I fell off my bike
Scars, here’s where I was cut with a knife
Scars, here’s a place where I once got burned
Now it’s there to show a lesson I’ve learned

Scars, places where skin has been marred
Scars, evidences now calloused and hard
Scars, marks where healing has taken place
And they’re reminders that time won’t erase…

I am thankful for these scars
I am thankful for these scars
Scars on the surface and scars on the heart
Where I once was broken, there’s a new place to start
I am thankful for these scars
So grateful for each mark
They’ve made me stronger today
So I won’t wish them away
I am thankful for these scars

Scars, lost a friend and oh how I cried
Scars, it tore me to pieces when grandpa died
Scars, there were times I almost fell apart
And each time has left its mark on my heart

Scars, for me Jesus was pierced in his side
Scars, just for me he was scorned and denied
Scars, Jesus’ hands still bear the marks from the nails
Just to show me that his love never fails

I am thankful for His scars
I am thankful for His scars
Scars on the surface and scars on the heart
Because He was broken, there’s a new place to start
I am thankful for His scars
So grateful for each mark
They’ve made me stronger today
How can I wish them away
I am thankful for His scars

His scars have made me stronger today
How can I wish them away
Oh Lord, I’m thankful for Your scars.
