Scars



Words and music by Ray Boltz



I heard Him call my name

He said I've come to save you

But I was so ashamed

I turned to walk away

He reached out His hand

And said I have something to show you

And what I saw changed my life that day



CHORUS:

I saw His scars

No He didn't try to hide them

He said, Come and look inside them

They are a window to my heart

And don't forget I love you

Just the way you are

I knew it must be true

I saw His scars



I said Lord my scars are deep

And I don't want You to see them

So many of them were caused

By things I chose to do

He said, Look again

At the ones that I am wearing

Don't you know I chose these scars too?



CHORUS



And one day in Heaven

When we are on our knees

We'll look up at Jesus

And I believe we'll see

We'll see His scars

No, He will not try to hide them

He'll say, Come and look inside them

They're a window to my heart

And don't forget I love you

Just the way you are

And we'll know that it's true

We'll see His scars

We'll see His scars

No He will not try to hide them

He'll say, Come and look inside them

They're a window to my heart

And don't forget I love you

Just the way you are

Oh we'll know that it's true

Because He died for me and you

Oh we'll know that it's true

We'll see His scars
