Can you walk
Through broken glass
While the wind blows strong
From nights gone past
Can you handle the pain
And the torment to come
When the nights return
And you can’t see the sun
Does the glass cut deep
Does the blood run fast
Can you really walk
Through broken glass
The glass is spread
On every road
And the walk is longer
With a heavy load
I cannot make it
Down this path
No, I cannot walk
Through broken glass
My skin tears more
With every step that I take
This feels like a nightmare
That I can’t escape
There’s no one in sight
To help me along
I’m wounded and weary
Where I used to be strong
I’m frozen in time
And unable to move
Overwhelmed by the feeling
I have something to prove
I’m supposed to be the one
Who is able to pass
Through all of the roads
Covered with broken glass
The night has gotten colder
And the wind even stronger
I’m not sure I can take this
For very much longer
The only thing I can do
Is look up above
To my Heavenly Father
And be wrapped in His love
I know that He’s with me
And I’m never on my own
On this glass covered road
I’m not walking alone
My tendency is to ask
For the glass to be removed
And the path I must walk
To be gentle and smoothed
But then I am reminded
We’re not given more than we can bare
And the roads we must walk
Can be filled with despair
I no longer request
A road with no glass
But instead for the strength
I will need on this path
So next time you must walk
Through broken glass
While the wind blows strong
From nights gone past
You can handle the pain
And the torment to come
When the night’s return
With help from the Son
The glass may cut deep
And the blood run fast
As you take the walk
Through broken glass
The glass may be covering
The road up ahead
And the load may be heavy
Down the path you are lead
I thought I couldn’t make it
Down my difficult path
But with God I can walk
Through the broken glass
