The twists and turns of life sometimes get hard
and the pain seems to tear us apart
but remember God said that
He never forsake you
He's a mender of broken hearts

A loved one has departed
A friend has gone
And the void
seems more than you can bear
You don't have to worry
but God is able to handle the scars
He's a mender of broken hearts

[Chorus: x2]
Just know the pain
(just know the pain)
It won't last always
(Won't last always)
This too shall pass
(this too shall pass)
To a brighter day
(to brighter days)
Listen, He's putting you back together again
Oh yes He is
(He's putting you back together again)
He's a mender, yes He is
(He's a mender of broken hearts)

Hold on, hold on, my brother
(He's a mender)
Hold on, hold on, my sister
(He's a mender)
I know it gets hard sometimes
(He's a mender)
But He would bring you peace of mind
(He's a mender)
I got assurance down in my soul
(He's a mender)
That the Lord has it under control
(He's a mender)
Deep in my heart I have no doubt
(He's a mender)
That the Lord is gonna bring you out
(He's a mender)
Through the midst of the storm and rain
(He's a mender)
He'll cause the sun to come out again
(He's a mender)
Even when you feel torn apart
(He's a mender)
He'll be the mender of your broken heart
Yes He is
(He's a mender of broken hearts)
Of broken hearts Oh ya ya

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version. Great version of a great song,

Page
Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.

Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it. “I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.

Midnight
Ed Sheeran
“Midnight” is a song about finding a love that is so true that it provides a calming feeling through every storm. Ed Sheeran reflects on his good fortunes in landing someone with such peace and support and speaks of not fearing the dark days because he knows they’ll all end in the safety nets of her arms. “Well, good morning there / What a way to start the day / With everything laid bare,” Ed Sheeran sings in the first verse, enthusiastic to be waking up beside his woman. He apologizes for missing her calls in the second verse and promises to return them because for him, speaking to her is the most important thing. “Well, I get lost inside my head / In this chaos, you’re my calm / And I will find my feet again / ‘Cause еven the worst days of my life will always еnd / At midnight in your arms,” sings Ed Sheeran in the chorus, revelling in his good luck.
