If I sat down beside you and showed you my heart
And told you everything I've been through
And if I opened these pages that hide all these scars
Would you see what I wanted you to?
That inside every chapter of this wounded life
Is a truth I can never erase
Can you see there's forgiveness between every line
In this story of mercy and grace
Just give up your heart, and the pain that you hide
Don't stop His love form reaching inside
Leave all the sorrow that tears you apart, take it from me...
just give up your heart.
I can tell by your life and the road you've been on
That your heart is trying hard to survive
But slipping away is the hope in your eyes
And you're fighting just to keep it alive
It's getting harder that it's ever been
Will you take it or leave it again? ...
