[Intro] [Spoken] (The Lord is close to the broken-hearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit. Psalm 34:18) [Verse 1] She used to wear her smile like armor every day, Nobody saw the cracks until it all gave way, Love walked out the door without a reason or a word, Left her in a quiet house where nothing's ever heard. He was there one morning and then gone by noon, She's still setting two plates in that empty room, Some grief don't come with funerals or flowers at the grave. Some grief is losing someone who chose to walk away. [Pre-Chorus] But there's a God who sees the tear before it falls, Who hears the prayer you never speak out loud at all. He's not far off in heaven looking down unmoved, He's right beside the broken-hearted, that's the truth. [Chorus] For the broken-hearted, He is close, When you're crushed in spirit and you need it most, You don't have to hold it all together on your own. The broken-hearted never have to be alone. Every piece He gathers, every scar He knows, In the darkest valley that's where His mercy goes, He heals what hands can't touch and mends what eyes can't see. This song's for every broken heart, including me. [Verse 2] He had dreams that never made it off the page, Watched 'em slowly die somewhere between youth and age, Told himself he's fine, kept pushing through the grey, But grief don't disappear just 'cause you chase it away. She buried her child on a cold November morning, Nobody prepared her for a loss without a warning, She screamed at God in silence, couldn't find the words to pray. And He heard every single thing she couldn't say. [Chorus] For the broken-hearted, He is close, When you're crushed in spirit and you need it most, You don't have to hold it all together on your own. The broken-hearted never have to be alone. Every piece He gathers, every scar He knows, In the darkest valley that's where His mercy goes, He heals what hands can't touch and mends what eyes can't see. This song's for every broken heart, including me. [Verse 3] I know what it is to feel abandoned in the dark, To lay awake at 3 AM with a shattered heart, To wonder if the pain is all that's ever gonna stay, To pray so hard you run out of words to pray. But I also know the morning after every long, dark night, I know the way that grace shows up and rearranges light, I know the God who sees you in the rubble of your life. Don't leave. He stays, He heals, He makes the broken right. [Bridge] You don't have to have it together to come to Him, You can come completely undone, that's never been a sin, Bring Him all the pieces even when they don't make sense, He's a God who builds cathedrals out of broken remnants. So if tonight the weight is more than you can bear alone, Let the broken-hearted know they don't have to carry on alone, He is close, not distant, not away. He is right here in this room with you today. [Chorus (Final)] For the broken-hearted, He is close, When you're crushed in spirit and you need it most, You don't have to hold it all together on your own. The broken-hearted never have to be alone. Every piece He gathers, every scar He knows, In the darkest valley that's where His mercy goes, He heals what hands can't touch and mends what eyes can't see — This song's for every broken heart, including me. [Outro] He is close… (He is close) To the broken-hearted… (you are not alone) Whatever broke you, He was there when it happened, And He's here right now, and that has never changed. For the broken-hearted… He is close.
