You may recall there was pain and there was suffering and there was a tragedy or there was weakness or there were wrong choices and your mind is cluttered with the last thing you remember." And in those moments, you feel the last moments of their life here. You realize you're not going to hear their voice again. Being a pastor and walking people through loss, there is this moment when we are suddenly very aware of their absence. They passed away within a year of each other. Frontman Mark Hall, who co-wrote this song with Matthew West, explained, "I began to write the song watching my mom care for her mom and dad as they were passing away. The song and its video were released on the 6th of June, 2021. "Scars In Heaven" was the first track revealed from Casting Crowns' ninth studio album. Until I finally see what you can see, oh-oh Until I’m standing with you in the sun, I’ll fight this fight and this race I’ll run You live on in all the better parts of me There’s not a day goes by that I don’t see you Hallelujah, for the hands that hold you now Oh, but now you’re standing in the sun, you’ve fought your fight and your race is run You picked up your share of scars along the way I know the road you walked was anything but easy Is that the only scars in heaven are on the hands that hold you now There’ll be no such thing as broken and all the old will be made newĪnd the thought that makes me smile now even as the tears fall down The only scars in heaven, they won’t belong to me and you ‘Cause there’s a wound here in my heart where something’s missingĪnd they tell me that it’s gonna heal with timeīut I know you’re in a place where all your wounds have been erasedĪnd knowing yours are healed is healing mine Now what I’d give for one more day with you

I would’ve stayed a little longer, held on a little tighter I would’ve put off all the things I had to do If I had only known the last time would be the last time

In the power of the Cross (Power of the Cross) Welcome, my joy (Welcome, my joy, ’cause I’m livin’) Knowin’ life is hard, but You’re still with me I was doin’ the talkin’, but now I’m listenin’ Song Info: Shout Your Freedom Song is sung by Skillet. Are You sure this is the plan that You have for me?Įven if it means I’m walkin’ on this desert road
