Christian 'Break Up Songs'

[Holly's_Dream]

Are there any?

A close christian friend last night broke up with her partner of 20yrs. He wasn't faithful.
Her reaction to stress is to sleep, mine is to disappear into a corner with my iPod. So in a silly moment of friendship, i wanted to bring my approach to her. She made a comment saying 'shouldn't i be singing whitney houston songs' which made me realise there aren't, or don't seem to be, worship/christian songs that cover this.
Do you guys know any that can go on my cd?

I'm looking for break up songs (if they exist), songs about new doors opening and moving forward, and anything else of such a variety

"Praise you in the storm"...absolutely brilliant song!!!

Switchfoot's "Hello Hurricane" is a great song about perseverance and moving through a storm.

Beauty from Pain (my theme song!) by superchick
Bowling Ball by superchick
Let the water rise-Mikeschair
Hold my heart-10th avenue north
Always-Building 429
How He Loves Us-David Crowder Band
What faith can do-Kutless
When the tears fall-newsboys
The Words I would say-Sidewalk prophets

Not Christian but always helped me through crushes:
Leave the peices when you go (the wreckers)
Goodbye-Kristine Debarge
Over You-Chris Daughtry

All not really break up songs, more like very encouraging songs.

oh, and Stand in The Rain by Superchick

"To Hell With the Devil" - Stryper

I actually suggest the original "How He Loves Us" by John Mark McMillian. <3 <3

Wishes - Superchick, Beauty from Pain - Superchick (these two work very well back to back in that order - I listened to them over and over again)

Hope is Rising by Downhere is also a good one.

Even though they may not be considered a CCM band, U2 has a lot of Christian and uplifting songs. Walk On, Yahweh, Kite, Sometimes You Can't Make It On Your Own, Stuck In A Moment You Can't Get Out Of, With A Shout, Ultraviolet (Light My Way), and Unknown Caller would all fit the category you're looking for pretty well.

Skillet has quite a few songs that deal with broken relationships.
