These Scars
by Shannon Wexelberg

Album: Better Than Life

I was taken
Just a young child
Bound and marked for slavery
So forsaken
Stripped of all life
Could this be my destiny

But Lord
You send someone to find me.
And though I leave that place behind me.
These scars remind me of the love you have for me

Were it not for you where would I be?
For these scars point me to the cross of Calvary
I bear them in your name
And I won't be ashamed of these scars.

What can man do, but take the body?
Death has lost its grip on me.
With your blood you claims and bought me
You have set my spirit free.

And Lord
With every pain I'm yearning to know
The suffering of Your journey
These scars remind me of the love You have for me

Were it not for you where would I be?
For these scars they point me to the cross of Calvary
I bear them in Your name and I won't be ashamed
Let these marks I tell them more than loss
Point them to Your cross Lord

I will boldly wear these marks that tell the world
Jesus I am Yours
These scars remind me of the love you have for me

Were it not for you where would I be?
O for these scars
They point me to the cross of Calvary
I bear them in your name
And I won't be ashamed of these scars

Oh these scars.
