Beauty in the breaking

What I get from my reflection,
Isn't what I thought I'd see.
Give me reason to believe,
You'd never keep me incomplete.
You untie this loss of mine,
That easily defines me.
Do you see it on my face?
That all I can think about is how long,
I've been waiting to feel You move me?

Close my eyes and hold my heart.
Cover me and make me something.
Change this something normal,
Into something beautiful.

And I'm still fighting for the word to break these chains.
And I still pray when I look in Your eyes,
You'll stare right back down,
Into something beautiful.
