As I stand before you, I see who I am: a man who needs to confess his pride and foolishness.
Against you only I have sinned,
I’ve done what’s evil in your sight and my heart is crumbling.
And I’m broken, broken,
To see myself as I really am: a weak, broken man.
Won’t you hear my cry, God?
See this state I’m in,
I know my transgressions are before me, my righteousness is rags,
And my sacrifice to you is this broken heart,
It’s all that I have, it’s all I can give, and it won’t go very far, ‘cause it’s…
Broken, broken,
Please heal this broken heart today,
Don’t turn it away, because it’s…broken.
Have mercy on me, God,
Do I stand condemned?
Let me know the joy and thanksgiving,
God, take away my sin,
I want to know what is, God, to have the faith,
To keep on running, keep on going – put that strength in me.
‘Cause I’m broken, broken,
To see myself as I really am: a weak, broken man,
And I’m broken, broken,
Please heal this broken heart today,
Don’t turn it away, no, ‘cause it’s broken.
Broken, broken, broken,
Oh, yes, I’m broken,
Broken, broken,
I stand before you now.
