Restore the Love
“Restore the Love” was written from within the pain of a deeply wounded relationship—the place where looking into another person’s eyes can bring everything rushing back, and hope for change can feel almost impossible. Yet the song also reaches toward the possibility that bitterness can soften, forgiveness can begin to flow, and hearts torn apart by hurt can be gently knit together again.
Restore the Love
Written by Kim-Char Meredith
Verse 1
I find it very hard
To look into his eyes.
It just brings back the pain.
I find it even harder
To believe
Things can ever change.
As I crawl away,
Heart bleeding,
Lord, here You are,
Bringing comfort and healing.
Chorus
Though the fabric has been torn,
You can knit my heart together
And restore the love,
All the love.
Though the fabric has been torn,
You can knit my heart together
And restore the love,
For You are healing.
Verse 2
I know Your promises are true,
So this promise I receive:
That You will take
All this bitterness and hurt
As forgiveness flows through me.
And in the middle
Of this devastation,
Lord, here You are,
Bringing peace and restoration.
Chorus
Though the fabric has been torn,
You can knit my heart together
And restore the love,
All the love.
Though the fabric has been torn,
You can knit my heart together
And restore the love,
For You are healing.
Bridge
I pray for his heart and mine,
That we will seek You first,
For only then we’ll find the love,
All the love.
Final Chorus
Though the fabric has been torn,
You can knit our hearts together
And restore the love,
All the love.
Though the fabric has been torn,
You can knit our hearts together
And restore the love,
For You are healing.
Outro
You can take what is broken,
Yeah,
And You can make it whole again.
You can take what is broken,
Oh,
And You can make it—
Make it new again.
