my cracks are evident – v4

I am a broken vessel,
my body is damaged,
my spirit is weighed down,
by many tears, by many years;
Only by Jesus, by His grace,
am I able to hold water.
 
I am made worthy,
though my scars are visible
I have cracks in my vessel,
water would be leaking,
but for Jesus filling the cracks;
My sins are forgiven.
 
The scars still remain,
my past is still written,
my clay is cracked,
where I have sinned,
where I have disobeyed God;
But I am redeemed...
