Battered and Bruised

I was bent, I was broken
I’d been thrown to the ground
And my ears they were bleeding
From the evil sound

I was crushed and heartbroken
‘Cause alone I am weak
Bleeding, out of hope then
I could not even speak

But through all of the pain
And in my silent prayer
I felt the winds change
And love fill the air

And my eyes saw my friends
As they rushed to my aid
Always perfect timing
Never delayed

They prove I am loved here
I’ve many a friend
And they still stand with me
And will not let me end

And God above also
Shining down in light
He’s willing to love me
And to help me fight

I’m battered and I’m bruised
From the pain I’ve been through
But with friend who love me
I will stand anew
