The Surgeon

You bring me low, lower than I’ve ever been
Oh how I know the weight of your heavy hand
Under now soul only one’s sovereign here
You bring me low, under now soul, my God he keeps me low

Every day I’m learning how to die
In every way and I’m crushed on every side
It’s God the surgeon and he’s come to save my life

I’m finding mercy cuts like a sharpened knife

I’ve been aching, so personal is pain
If I’m not mistaken you like to give and take
I’m afflicted but still you give me joy
The bones you’re breaking, the bones they will rejoice!

You bring me low, lower than I’ve ever been
Oh how I know the weight of your heavy hand
Under now soul only one’s sovereign here
You bring me low, under now soul
My God he keeps me low
