Bridge Repair…for all of us with broken bridges

Lord, I thought I’d built your bridge
but now it’s torn apart
perhaps it was my own

I ache with ‘whys?’ and sorrows
only you can know
the fragile pieces

my failures at forgiveness
the uniqueness of each soul
the unclaimed grace of generations

I claim it now

Wrap me with your pardon
Bind my wounds beneath your cross
Span my empty valley

with your never failing love
Rebuild me as your bridge
while I’m learning to forgive
