Here I am again, I'm trying hard to pray
I'm down on my knees, but I don't know what to say
Forgive me... is all that comes to mind
Why did I do these things? Why have I been so blind?
Another long, long road to another dead-end street
Another painful journey to another broken dream
Searching for something that I can never reach
I realize through the rain it's You I really need
Broken: is how I come to You.
Broken: I give everything to You
Broken: I'm crying in the rain.
Broken: it is the only way
Broken: is how I am saved
The good work that You started is growing inside me
Every brand new day I can feel Your love for me
I know I'll let You down, but when I'm weak You are strong
The power of Your Spirit helps me carry on
The road is long and hard, but now You walk with me
And when I'm weak and weary Your Spirit strengthens me
I know I'll fall again, but Your love restores me
I cling to Your mercy that has set me free
Broken: is how I come to You.
Broken: I give everything to You
Broken: I'm crying in the rain.
Broken: it is the only way
Broken: is how I am saved
Broken: You gave Yourself for me
Broken: is how You died to set me free
Broken: then You rose from the grave
When You were broken that's how I was saved
Broken: is how I come to You.
Broken: I give everything to You
Broken: I'm crying in the rain.
Broken: it is the only way
Broken: is how I am saved
