Pieces on the Ground

(John Bunzow)



Mend this broken body in pieces on the ground

My spirit's cracked and crumbled, my world's been crashing down

The weight upon my shoulders got so heavy they just gave in

'Til I could not lift my head up to face another day again.



Let a ray of hope come shining

So I may look up at the sky

And see a glimpse of tomorrow

Where I'm standing in the light

Let me climb upon a hilltop

Healing hands can touch me now

They will mend this broken body

In pieces on the ground.

The human heart's a fragile thing it shatters just like glass

Gather up all of these splinters crush them into grains of sand

So the wind may scatter them toward the angels looking down

They will mend this broken body in pieces on the ground.



Then a ray of hope came shining

When I looked into your eyes

I saw all of my tomorrows

And we're standing in the light

We are high upon a hilltop

Healing hands touching me and

Mending this broken body

In pieces on the ground...
