The pain we bear, both seen and unseen
Scars etched deep, where wounds have been
Each mark tells a story, of hurt and strife
A reminder of the battles fought in life
From betrayals deep to words unkind
Scars linger on, in heart and mind
Yet in the midst of all the pain
Be reminded—Jesus bears scars, not in vain

His hands, His feet, His side so torn
His brow, His back, all bruised and worn
Every mark, a testament profound
Of love and grace, the world around
For in His wounds, our healing’s found
The great exchange—it’s quite profound
Beauty for ashes, joy for tears
In every scar, redemption nears

From brokenness to wholeness bound
Each scar a jewel in life’s crown
For wounds transformed, become our strength
A journey marked, of depth and length
In every scar, there’s a story to be told
Of how we fought and how Christ mold
For in our wounds, our stories are shown
And through His scars, healing is known
