Chorus / Description : The song Stolen by Jason Gray reflects on the idea that sometimes God allows us to go through brokenness to bring us closer to Him and to build us up again. It highlights the belief that God's love can be found even in our lowest moments. While the lyrics do not directly reference specific Bible verses, the concept of God using brokenness for His purpose can be seen in passages such as Psalm 51:17 and Isaiah 61:1-3.
Nobody wishes for this
Nobody is looking for heart-ache
But I know sometimes that's just how it goes
I wasn't asking for easy, I didn't want the hard way either
But I guess that's what You thought I needed most
If my life never would have got broken
Then my hands would have never been open
And my heart never would have been stolen
But Your love came to me at my lowest
And I've been singing ever since that moment
Hallelujah, my heart has been stolen
In the middle of it
I couldn't see a reason
So I guess I question what I was worth
But You saw my heart as a jewel
And You broke in like a thief and showed me
That You do anything to make me Yours
If my life never would have got broken
Then my hands would have never been open
And my heart never would have been stolen
But Your love came to me at my lowest
And I have been singing ever since that moment
Hallelujah, my heart has been stolen
Sometimes You let us get broken down
Busted and bruised from the inside out
So You can build us up again
Yeah, sometimes You let us get broken down
Lost in the dark right before we're found
So You can take us home again
If my life never would have got broken
Then my hands would have never been open
And my heart never would have been stolen
But Your love came to me at my lowest
And I have been singing ever since that moment
Hallelujah, my heart has been stolen
Sometimes You let us get broken down
Busted and bruised from the inside out
So You can build us up again
Yeah, sometimes You let us get broken down
Lost in the dark right before we're found
So You can take us home again
Hallelujah, my heart has been stolen
Hallelujah, my heart has been stolen
