Here To Remind You

See that crack on your face? That's for more light to come in See the line on your belly? That's where God drew a line Dry, and wrinkled hands that toil That's a Mother's love that never tires Marks on your stomach and thighs Those are just there to remind you, you survived See those worn jeans that you wear? They became interwoven cause you kept them Fitting perfectly; they love the way they feel on you They aren't just any old worn pair of jeans Damaged heart-born with a hole That's to remind us how we aren't complete Not yet, until we are filled with God's love Love from children, family, friends and spouses See, all your supposed damaged goods Are just reminders that we are more than survivors Even if we lost some things along the way A journey for all to make on this earth we live
