The Oak Ridge Boys

You Can't Fix It

I recall climbing up that backyard tree

Before I knew it I had hit the ground

She knew my arm was broken

As Mama threw the car door open

And hurriedly she drove me into town

As we sat there waiting I said

Mom it really hurts!

Then she pointed to the doctor with these words

You can't fix it, but He can

Don't you cry, there's healing in His hands

He can take what's broken and make it whole again

You can't fix it, but He can

I can still see me sittin' on that back church pew

Trying to be cool at seventeen

When the altar call was given

I just kinda stiffened

The preacher seemed to look right straight at me

When Daddy put his arms around me

The tears began to fall

Then he pointed to the cross there on the wall and said

You can't fix it, but He can

Don't you know there's healing in His hands

He can take what's broken and make it whole again

You can't fix it, but He can

Are you standing in the rubble of your broken life and wonder

Can the pieces be put back together

You can't fix it, but He can

There is healing in the Savior's hands

Whoa He can take what's broken and make it whole again

You can't fix it, but He can
