my scars visible

cracks in my plaster

the clay of my body

my flesh getting older

each year I live

my scars visible

my sin, my past,

as when I jump in frigid water

my skin turning blue

the scars visible

in the light, under Jesus,

my sin cannot hide

needing the living waters

to wash the substance

the flesh from me

making a stone

to build the temple

my scars visible

in the light, within the Spirit,

a testament to my past

and the hope that sustains us
