Lyrics
Verse 1
Making a list of all the good things
You've done for me
Lord I've never been one to complain
But right now I'm lost
And I can't find my way
My world has come apart
And it's breaking my heart
But it helps to know that
Your heart is breaking too
Chorus
When I cry You cry
When I hurt You hurt
And when I lost someone
It takes a piece of You too
When I fall on my face
You fill me with grace
Nothing breaks Your heart
Tears You apart like
When I cry
Verse 2
Lonely in the dark
Face in my hands crying out to You
There's never been a time in my life
There's so much at stake
So much to lose
But I trust it to You
Because You'll bring me through
And it helps to know
That I am not alone
Chorus
When I cry You cry
When I hurt You hurt
And when I lost someone
It takes a piece of You too
When I fall on my face
You fill me with grace
Nothing breaks Your heart
Tears You apart like when I cry
Bridge
You're the one who calmed the raging sea
You're the one who made the blind to see
And You live through all the heaven and eternity
And through it all You saw me
Chorus
When I cry You cry
When I hurt You hurt
And when I lost someone
It takes a piece of You too
When I fall on my face
You fill me with grace
Coz' nothing breaks Your heart
Tears You apart like when I cry
