I'VE GOT THE SCARS TO PROVE IT
by Harlan Burton
The mountain was so high with no way around,
It seemed so hard to climb, my heart was weighted down;
And then I cried out through my pain please Jesus come and move it,
And he said, Child I've been there too, I've got the scars to prove it.
I have the scars to prove it, I've walked that rugged road,
I won't move every problem, but I will help you bear the load;
There's purpose in your pain that's why I won't remove it,
Child I've been there too, I've got the scars to prove it.
Some folks will put you down on this road I've taken you,
They may call you a sinner and even say I've forsaken you;
And when it's hard to hold on, when it's hard to understand,
Just look up and take a lesson from the scars in my hands.
I have the scars to prove it, I've walked that rugged road,
I won't move every problem, but I will help you bear the load;
There's purpose in your pain that's why I won't remove it,
Child I've been there too, I've got the scars to prove it.
There is purpose in your pain that's why I won't remove it,
Child I've been there too, I've got the scars to prove it.
Yes, Child I've been there too, I've got the scars to prove it.
