“Broken & Beautiful” Song Lyrics

From the album, Broken & Beautiful, by Mark Schultz

(Mark Schultz / Matthew West)
There’s a businessman
There’s a widowed wife
There’s a smiling face with
a shattered life
There’s a teenage girl with a choice to
make
It’s crowded here in church today

And the preacher says as the sermon ends
Please close your eyes and bow your heads
Is there anyone in need of prayer
Jesus wants to meet you here
‘cause we all fall short
We all have sinned
But when you let
God’s Grace break in…

(Chorus)
It’s beautiful
Beautiful
Come as you are
Surrender your heart
Broken and beautiful

Well he’d never been to church before
But he came today as a last resort
His world was crashing in
And he was suffocating in his sin

But tears ran down
As hope rushed in
He closed his eyes
Raised his hands
Worshiping the God who can
Bring him back to life again

(Chorus)

Cause there’s nothing more beautiful to God
Than when his sons and daughters come Broken

Alleluia
Alleluia
Come as you are

Alleluia
Alleluia
Come as you are

(Chorus)

Alleluia
Alleluia
Come as you are
(Come as you are)

Surrender your heart
Broken and beautiful

Alleluia
Alleluia
Come as you are
(Come as you are)

Surrender your heart
Broken and beautiful

Mark Schultz Being a songwriter is like having a special license to explore the world and take your audience along on the journey. Some writers prefer to look no further than their own experiences, plumbing the depths of their souls for songs. Some intently observe the parade of life swirling around them and capture stories from other people’s lives. Singer/songwriter Mark Schultz is equally skilled at both approaches. It’s a gift he demonstrates yet again on his latest Word Records collection “Broken and Beautiful.”
