I remember the weight

I remember the weight of waiting

The heaviness of the heart

The seams ripping apart

I remember the weight

I remember everything

I remember waiting for a call with any good news

I remember hearing phantom rings

The haunting silence sings

I remember fervent prayers

Waiting for a breakthrough

Forced passed that lump in my throat

I remember you

I remember the pain

I remember the pain of life fading

The steady slip of a spark

Just need a pulse in the dark

I remember the pain

I remember everything

My wounds itch when they heal

They crave more

& more & more

& more & more attention

We find strength in the waiting

Our bones may been breaking

but never once in the same place

Remember (Remember)

I remember (Remember)

I still remember (Remember)

Even in His suffering, Jesus remembers:

I remember the crown upon My head

bloody thorns, driven down, til all I see is red

Then I remembered what I came to do

With every lashing that I take, I remember you

Remember (Remember)

Remember (Remember)

Remember (Remember)

Remember (Remember)

With a heart that's forged (Remember)

stronger than before

Ironclad with purpose (Remember)

The 4th man in the furnace

With a heart that's forged (Remember)

Stronger than before

Ironclad with purpose (Remember)

The 4th man in the furnace

By wounds which I'm healed (Remember)

what God bore

Was more & more (Remember)

& more & more affliction

The stripes down His back (Remember)

Trade suffering for saving

A bloody face to take my place

(Remember me)

Remember:

He grew up before him like a tender shoot,

and like a root out of dry ground.

He had no beauty or majesty to attract us to him,

nothing in his appearance that we should desire him. He was despised & rejected by mankind,

a man of suffering, & familiar with pain.

Like one from whom people hid their faces

he was despised, & we held him in low esteem. Surely he took up our pain

and bore our sufferings,

yet we considered him punished by God,

stricken by him, & afflicted. But he was pierced for our transgressions,

he was crushed for our iniquities

the punishment that brought us peace was on him,

& by his wounds we are healed.

Isaiah 53:2-5 NIV
