Beautiful Scars

Theme

"Beautiful Scars" is a song that conveys the full extent of Jesus' sacrifice on our behalf. We could never do what he did for us, and the scars on his hands, feet, and side are a reminder of both the excruciating pain endured by him and the incredible mercy extended to us.

Suggested Uses

• General corporate worship
• Special music before, during, or after communion
• Recurring song in a sermon series about Jesus' sacrifice
• Special music for Easter

But He was pierced because of our transgressions, crushed because of our iniquities; punishment for our peace was on Him, and we are healed by His wounds.

John 20:26-28 (HCSB)

After eight days His disciples were indoors again, and Thomas was with them. Even though the doors were locked, Jesus came and stood among them. He said, “Peace to you!” Then He said to Thomas, “Put your finger here and observe My hands. Reach out your hand and put it into My side. Don’t be an unbeliever, but a believer.” Thomas responded to Him, “My Lord and my God!”
