Damage Done Lyrics Words and music by Shaun Groves
Yesterday
Once again
I fell down and broke a friend
Words were said
Out of place
I hope that it's not too late
To right this wrong
Cause I was wrong
Chorus:
I struck the match
I burned the bridge
I'm to blame for all of it
I lost your trust
When I drew my sword
This distance is my just reward
Can I undo
The damage done
Couldn't sleep
Part of me
Was crying out from hurting you
So afraid
You would say
There is nothing I can do
To right this wrong
I was wrong
(CHORUS)
Listen friend
I must confess
You deserved more
I gave you less
It tears me up
That I let you down
I'm sorry
I'm sorry
Story Behind The Song:
In Matthew Jesus reminds us of the greatest barrier to worship - sin. He commands us to make things right with one another, ask forgiveness and make amends before we offer him our worship. Worship from a sinful heart is like a stench to God not the fragrant offering we desire it to be. This song lays bare my own desire to be forgiven by man so that I can be obedient to God. (Psalm 66:18, Matthew 5:23-24)
