free in love

Today I saw your sky fall down
I saw it in your eyes
The disappointment took your light
Like when a star dies

One moment you were full of joy
Life and laughter bounding
The next you were a broken toy
Lifeless, limp and drowning

Your heart had shattered, I could see
Into a million pieces
And you were crying to be free
But this pain never ceases

Today I watched him steal your heart
Without a second thought
I watched him break it all apart
You cried as well you aught

You tried to hold together
To put it all to right
But nothing in the world
Could ever change this night

I watched it all, and I was there
I saw that thing he did
I want to show you I am here
His sin will not be hid

The brokenness upon your face
Will turn once more to lovely grace
I won’t leave you alone to run
My restoration has begun

I’ve locked the door and shut him out
It’s only you and me
Now cry your pain, cry and shout
And I will make you see

That I alone can right this wrong
And I will set you free
Then you and I will sing our song
And dance upon your chains
And flowers will grow here once more
Watered by these rains.
