The Softening
I feel my bones start to trust again
And all my scars start trembling
Oh my heart is softening
Oh I'm back, oh I'm back home
I feel my eyes start to see again
And all my walls start crumbling
Oh my heart is opening
Oh I'm back, oh I'm back home
Oh God, I was so bitter
I thought you left me to freeze that winter
Oh God, I was in trouble
There was so much processing
Tears made puddles
I was hurt, never thought the pain would go away
I learned even the healer allows for stormy days
I feel my bones start to trust again
And all my scars start trembling
Oh my heart is softening
Oh I'm back, oh I'm back home
I feel my eyes start to see again
And all my walls start crumbling
Oh my heart is opening
Oh I'm back, oh I'm back home
I've fallen
you picked me up into your love
I can breathe again
I've crumbled, but you saw the way
you carried me
I am home again
There was a season
I lost my faith in your great name
But I believe again
I've hardened, but you saw me there
And still took care
Of your bitter child
Hands I'm in your hands
Only your hands
I've seen your power I live in
your hands I'm in your hands
Only your hands
I've seen your power I am safe in
your hands I'm in your hands
Only your hands
you've taken me through a drought
Yet I've never left
your hands
I'm in your hands
Only your hands
The only perfect hands
I am safe here
Oh I'm back
Oh I'm back
Oh I'm back
Oh I'm back
Oh I'm back
Oh I'm back home
