Verse 1

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

Chorus

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

Verse 2

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

Chorus

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

Bridge

Break my heart and take
Me down to my knees
You were chasing me
And now at last I can see

Chorus

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

Chorus

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
