Shekinah Glory's song "Broken" is a raw and honest worship ballad about the pain and confusion that can accompany ministry and obedience to God. The lyrics express the singer's struggle with feeling empty, bruised, and distant from God despite serving Him. They cry out for rescue and a fresh word from the Father, admitting their brokenness and fear that God may no longer use them. The song culminates in a powerful realization that brokenness itself can be a place of deeper intimacy and purpose, as God whispers that there is still much to be done through a broken vessel. It speaks to anyone who has felt spiritually dry or unworthy in their walk with God.

I remember when I told God Yes
I was eager to do what He told me too in obedience
Looking out in the crowd I see eyes closed tears falling
Hands lifted people praising and worshiping too
They didn't see me
They only saw You
It felt good but something was missing
See I�??m empty inside and I�??m wondering why
Will I ever feel
What they felt From me
I didn't know the price of yes.
Would cost me so much...
[Choir:]
I've been broken and bruised
Wondering will God still use
Crying out to you
Got nothing left to loose
Father hear my plea
Need You to rescue me
Cause I�??m broken
[Repeat]
I've got something to say not sure where I start
I�??m afraid to begin it�??s all falling apart
See I thought because I was working For You
everything wrong You would undue but it wasn't quite true
It�??s hard to admit that I can�??t feel you like I use too
Cause I�??m in ministry and I�??m messed up
I�??m confused with no one to talk too
I need a breakthrough I need a breakthrough
cause this the thing You've anointed me to do..
[Choir:]
I've been broken and bruised
Wondering will God still use
Crying out to you
Got nothing left to loose
Father hear my plea
Need You to rescue me
Cause I�??m broken
[Bridge/Lead:]
I'm Broken,
Need You to Rescue Me...
I'm Broken,
Father Speak A Word To Me...
[Choir:]
I'm Broken,
Need You To Rescue Me...
I'm Broken...
Father Speak A Word To Me...
[Repeat]
[Vamp/Unison:]
Got You just like I want You,
Got You just where I need You,
Welcome back to the way
It used to be, when it was just
You & Me.
[Repeat Vamp til the end]

[Vamp 1/Lead:]
Cause there�??s a lot left in you
To do for me; now that you�??re broken
He says there is a lot left in you to do for me
Now that you�??re broken
Oh I hear You how can You use me
When you know this and that about me
But there�??s a lot left in you to do for me
Now that you�??re broken
