To The Broken Girl

So, there’s this song on my iPhone’s playlist that I absolutely love and wanted to share with you. It’s called, “Broken Girl” by Matthew West. I don’t remember how I found it, but I instantly related to it though I myself have not ever been sexually abused. I have been abused in the past before though from a different family member, and I have definitely felt the sting and grief of feeling worthless, unwanted, and unloved. I just want to share this with you so those of you who have been abused, or just feel like you’re worthless/broken, know there is Someone who loves you SO much… and you don’t have to stay broken anymore. There is a God who loves you and can completely heal you in every way, shape, and form.

Hope you have a good week and I hope this song is a blessing to you!

P.S. Here are the lyrics and a video I found on YouTube of the song. 🙂 (Matthew West’s explanation of the song is at the very end of the clip)

Look what he’s done to you
It isn’t fair
Your light was bright and new
But he didn’t care
He took the heart of a little girl
And made it grow up too fast

Now words like “innocence”
Don’t mean a thing
You hear the music play
But you can’t sing
Those pictures in your mind
Keep you locked up inside your past

This is a song for the broken girl
The one pushed aside by the cold, cold world
You are
Hear me when I say
You’re not the worthless they made you feel
There is a Love they can never steal away
And you don’t have to stay the broken girl

Those damaged goods you see
In your reflection
Love sees them differently
Love sees perfection
A beautiful display
Of healing on the way tonight
Tonight

Let your tears touch to the ground
Lay your shattered pieces down
And be amazed by how Grace can take a broken girl
And put her back together again
