Check out this song- it's so true isn't it?

"The Cut" Jason Graves (with Sara Groves)


1st VERSE
My heart is laid under Your blade
as you carve out Your image in me
You cut to the core, but still you want more
As you carefully, tenderly ravage me

CHORUS 1
And You peel back the bark and tear me apart
to get to the heart of what matters most
I’m cold and I’m scared as your love lays me bare
But in the shaping of my soul, the cut makes me whole

2nd VERSE
Mingling here, Your blood and my tears
as You whittle my kingdom away
But I see that you suffered too in making me new
For the blade of love, it cuts both ways

BRIDGE
Hidden inside the grain, beneath the pride and pain
Is the shape of the man You meant me to be
Who with every cut now you try to set free

CHORUS 2
With everyday, You strip more away
And You peel back the bark, and tear me apart
To get to the heart of what matters most
I’m cold and I’m scared as your love lays me bare
But in the shaping of my soul, the blade must take it’s toll
So God give me strength to know that the cut makes me whole
