Lyrics

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
Till 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 there 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
[ guitar - dobro ]
Human heart's a fragile thing it shatters just like glass
Gather up all these splinters crush them into grains of sand
So the wind may scatter them towards 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 tomrrows and we're standing in the light
We are high upon a hilltop healing hands touching me now
Mending this broken body in pieces on the ground
