Words and Music by Misty Edwards

I’ve got scars on my face
And they are the traces of my adolescence
Wrestling with graces
But beauty would never be mine
It’s never still long enough to define it
In this always changing perpetual vanity of life

I’m going to live above the sun
Where I’ll never die and life goes on
I’m going to live above it all
Where purpose is found above the stars
In You

I’ve got scars on my soul
And they are the show-and-tell of a dance with illusion
That tried to lead to hell
But pleasure would never be mine
It’s never real long enough to find it
In this always fading perpetual fragile life
