Wow! This song, “Dear Heartache” by 7 Hills Worship is powerful.

I don’t currently feel this way, but I remembered when I did. Grief is a powerful emotion. Sometimes it can be very dark. Loss, pain, hurt all can affect you in different ways and some things just hit harder.

I was listening to this album, released in 2024 by 7 Hills Worship “…Like Poetry” for the first time and this song stopped me in my tracks. There was some real power in it, that I think could help lots of people who are going through a period of grieving or have gone through a period of grief in the past. God is with you through it all. Through what happened. Through recovery. Through moving on to what is next. Turn to Him and cry out for His comfort.

“Dear Heartache” by 7 Hills Worship Lyrics:

[Verse 1]
I wish I could take away the hurt you feel
I know that it seems like this won’t end
I wish I could make the sadness disappear
But I know that you’ll find your joy again

[Verse 2]
I wish I could change the way you see the stars
I know they don’t shine like they once did
I wish you could see all that you really are
But I know that you’ll find peace in Him

[Chorus]
Sometimes it’s hard to live in the middle
There’s breaks on our hearts and they still hurt a little
But the power of faith’s not the absence of pain
But believing that Jesus can change everything
I’m convinced His promise is providence
The beautiful peace in the life He gives
Always willing to show His love
Just promise you won’t give up

[Verse 3]
I wish I could give you back the trust you lost
But I know that some wounds just take time
I hope that you know you’ll never be alone
Because Jesus never leaves your side

[Chorus]
Sometimes it’s hard to live in the middle
There’s breaks on our hearts and they still hurt a little
But the power of faith’s not the absence of pain
But believing that Jesus can change everything
I’m convinced His promise is providence
The beautiful peace in the life He gives
Always willing to show His love
Just promise you won’t give up

Sometimes it’s hard to live in the middle
There’s breaks on our hearts and they still show a little
But the power of faith’s not the absence of pain
But knowing that Jesus can change everything
I’m convinced His promise is providence
A beautiful peace in the life He gives
Always willing to show His love
Just promise you won’t give up
