Scars in Heaven lyrics

VERSE 1 

If I had only known the last time would be the last time 

I would have put off all the things I had to do 

I would have stayed a little longer, held on a little tighter 

Now what I’d give for one more day with you 

VERSE 2 

Cause there’s a wound here in my heart where something’s missing 

And they tell me that it’s going to heal with time 

But I know you’re in a place where all your wounds have been erased 

And knowing yours are healed is healing mine 

CHORUS 

The only scars in heaven, they won’t belong to me and you 

There’ll be no such thing as broken and all the old will be made new 

And the thought that makes me smile now even as the tears fall down 

Is that the only scars in heaven are on the Hands that hold you now 

VERSE 3 

I know the road you walked was anything but easy 

You picked up your share of scars along the way 

But now you’re standing in the sun, you’ve fought your fight and your race is run 

The pain is all a million miles away 

BRIDGE 

Hallelujah, Hallelujah. 

Hallelujah, for the Hands that hold you now 

VERSE 4 

There’s not a day goes by that I don’t see you 

You live on in all the better parts of me 

Until I’m standing with you in the sun,  

I’ll fight this fight and this race I’ll run 

Until I finally see what you can see
