If it wasn't for the mistakes
If it wasn't for the shame
I wouldn't know about forgiveness
Or that love had a name
If I'd never felt so empty
If I'd never cried those tears
I wouldn't know You as my Savior
I would've never found You here
I wouldn't know the greater purpose
Or see the hope beyond the pain
But there was a bigger picture
Every broken road, every shattered dream
All of the times I failed, You were grace to me
Now when I look back on my story
There is no way I'd know who You are
If You'd never let this world break my heart
I wouldn't know I had a Healer
If there never was a cost
I wouldn't know I had a future
If it wasn't for the cross
There could be no greater purpose
Than to magnify Your name
And tell the world about You, Jesus
Every broken road, every shattered dream
All of the times I failed, You were grace to me
Now when I look back on my story
There is no way I'd know who You are
If You'd never let this world...
Break my heart and take me down to my knees
You were chasing me and now, at last, I can see
Every broken road, every shattered dream
All of the times I failed, You were grace to me
Now when I look back on my story
There is no way I'd know who You are
If You'd never let me walk down...
Every broken road, every shattered dream
All of the times I failed, You were grace to me
Now when I look back on my story
There is no way I'd know who You are
If You'd never let this world break my heart
