Sometimes you gotta learn the hard way
Gotta do some hard things
It's gonna be rough
Sometimes ya gotta fall face down
All the way to the ground
Before you get up
And it's never really easy
But the best things never are
I'm showing You the pieces
Of my broken heart
God with You it's all or nothing
But it scares me when I'm falling
Cause I'm stuck here in the deep end
I feel alone
God I know You got a purpose
And Your love for me is perfect
And You find me where the dirt is
And You love me where the hurt is
I've heard it said a time or two
That you are the one who I can come to
Maybe I can find some healing
Or even just the feeling
That I'll make it through
And I don't know what I'm doing
And I guess I never do
So I'm taking all my broken
Giving it to You
God with You it's all or nothing
But it scares me when I'm falling
Cause I'm stuck here in the deep end
I feel alone
God I know You got a purpose
And Your love for me is perfect
And You find me where the dirt is
And You love me where the hurt is
