  			G Em C D C D7 G 
  
(G)                      Em 
As I stand before you, I see who I am: 
  C             D              C          D7     G 
A man who needs to confess his pride and foolishness. 
                  Em 
Against you only I have sinned. 
      C                D                   C        D7    G 
I've done what's evil in your sight and my heart is crumbling. 
  
        (G)      Em 
And I'm broken.  Broken. 
   C               D            C     D7     G 
To see myself as I really am, a weak, broken man. 
  
(G) 
Won't you hear my cry, God? 
        Em 
See the state I'm in. 
  C                      D 
I know my transgressions are before me, 
   C        D7      G 
My righteousness is rags. 
    (G)             Em 
My sacrifice to you is this broken heart. 
     C                D                      C        D7   G 
It's all I have, it's all I can give, and it won't go very far... 
  
(G)                  Em 
'Cause it's broken.  Broken. 
       C                D 
Please heal this broken heart today. 
C              D7                 G 
Don't turn it away because it's...broken! 
  
(G) Em C D C D7 G (short musical break) 
  
(G) 
Have mercy on me, God. 
Em 
Do I stand condemned? 
       C            D 
Let me know the joy and thanksgiving, 
     C     D7     G 
God, take away my sin. 
(G) 
I wanna know what it is, God, 
   Em 
To have that faith, 
   C                D 
To keep on runnin', keep on going, 
C        D7          G 
Put that strength in me. 
  
          (G)      Em 
Cause I'm broken.  Broken. 
   C               D            C     D7     G 
To see myself as I really am, a weak, broken man. 
        (G)      Em 
And I'm broken.  Broken. 
       C                D 
Please heal this broken heart today, 
C              D7                 G 
Don't turn it away because it's...broken. 
Em       C 
Broken,  broken, 
    D    C   D7  G 
Oh, yes, I'm broken. 
  
(G) 
I stand before you now...
