Beautiful Heartbreak

Beautiful Heartbreak by Hilary Weeks from Every Step album


I had it all mapped out in front of me, 
Knew just where I wanted to go
But life decided to change my plans, 
And I found a mountain in the middle of my road. 

I knew there was no way over it, 
So I searched for a way around
Brokenhearted I started climbin', 
And at the top I found

Every fear, every doubt, 
All the pain I went through
Was the price that I paid to see this view
And now that I'm here I would never trade

The grace that I feel, 
And the faith that I find
Through the bitter-sweet tears, 
And the sleepless nights

I used to pray he'd take it all away, 
But instead it became a beautiful heartbreak. 

I never dreamed my heart would make it, 
I thought about turning around
But heaven has shown me miracles, 
I never would have seen from the ground. 

Now I take the rain with the sunshine, 
Cause there's one thing that I know
He picks up the pieces, 
Along each broken road. 

Every fear, every doubt, 
All the pain I went through
Was the price that I paid to see this view
And now that I'm here I would never trade

The grace that I feel, 
And the faith that I find
Through the bitter-sweet tears, 
And the sleepless nights. 

I used to pray he'd take it all away, 
But instead it became a beautiful heartbreak. 
I would never trade

The grace that I feel, 
And the faith that I find
Through the bitter-sweet tears, 
And the sleepless nights. 

I used to pray he'd take it all away, 
But instead it became a beautiful heartbreak.
