BROKEN

Snippet

There is a crack in everything.

That's how the light gets in.”

― Leonard Cohen, Selected Poems, 1956-1968

Scripture

He will not argue or cry out;

no one will hear his voice in the streets.

He will not break a crushed blade of grass

or put out even a weak flame

until he makes justice win the victory.

In him will the non-Jewish people find hope.” Isaiah 42:1–4

Matthew 12:19-21 NCV

I am the comfortable secure
The definition of this western world, and
I have perfected deceit
Even I believe, I'm above, saving (yeah)
And I'll never, let you see
I am the broken
I am the bruised
I am the poor ones
I have been used
It takes me falling to the ground
To admit to, fully needing you
Then When I'm breathing my last breath
"Come and save me" I will cry to you
'Cause pride has not, let me say
I am the broken
I am the bruised
I am the poor ones
I have been used
(Oh why does it take so much?)
To bring me to my knees,
(Oh why does it take so much?)
Pain for me to see,
(If strength is only found when)
I am on my knees,
(Why is it so hard)
To show that I am weak? Yeah yeah
I am the broken
I am the bruised
I am the poor ones
I have been used.

Sentence Prayer

Dear God,

Hear my call!

So many victims!

Please rescue them all!

Give them the faith,

that they need today.

Give them a new life,

beginning this day.

Break all the chains,

and make them free.

So they will know You,

and worship Thee.

It’s hard to praise,

when we’re so broken.

But You gave Your Word,

and It is spoken.

You love the brokenhearted,

and so many are today.

Reveal Yourself to them…

and rescue them I pray. (http://secretangelps911.wordpress.com/2013/07/28/poem-prayer-for-the-broken/)
