Todd Smith - Broken Praise Lyrics

Send "Broken Praise" ringtone to your cell

If one more person takes my hand

And tries to say they understand

And tells me there's a bigger plan

That i'm not meant to see

If one more person dares suggest

That i held something unconfessed

And tries to make the dots connect

From righteousness to easy street

Well i i won't deny

That i've relied on some assumptions

A man's honest life

Entitles him to something

Who am i to make demands

Of the god of abraham?

And who are you that you would choose

To answer me with mercy new

How many more will wander past

To find me here among the ashes

Will you hold me? will you stay?

So i can raise this broken praise to you oh

Who else will see my suffering

As one more opportunity

To educate to help me see

All my flawed theology

If one more well intentioned friend

Tries to tie up my loose ends

Hoping to with rug and broom

Sweep awkward moments from the room

But i i can't forget

That i have begged just like a madman

For my chance to die

Never have to face the morning

Who am i to make demands

Of the god of abraham?

And who are you that you would choose

To answer me with mercy new

How many more will wander past

To find me sitting in this ash

Will you hold me? will you stay?

So i can raise this broken praise to you

But you were the one who filled my cup

And you were the one who let it spill

So blessed be your holy name

If you never fill it up again

If this is where my story ends

Just give me one more breath to say

Hallelujah hallelujah

Hallelujah hallelujah

Hallelujah hallelujah
