Your Love Is A Healing Place

Vs1
Remembering the call I made that cold and rainy day
A friendship lost I always thought would be there come what may
You said I’ll be right there, an answer to my prayers
And I felt my spirits raise
When I need a friend, when I need to mend
Your love is a healing place

Refrain
Your love (your love) is a healing place
Where I go to free my soul from the pain I can’t let go
Your love (your love) is a healing place
In your strong yet gentle arms I find shelter from life’s storms
Lost in your embrace I find amazing grace
Your love is a healing place
Your love is a healing place

Vs2
A letter from a dear friend’s mom bearing tragic news
He had lost his life in a desert fight
Left a wife and child he never knew
Thank God you were there to quietly share
The grief I felt those days
When I need a friend, when I need to mend
Your love is a healing place

Repeat refrain

Bridge
Every time life leaves me hurtin’
When I feel like givin’ up
I know one thing for certain
I can count on is your love

Key change and repeat refrain
Your love (your love) is a healing place
Where I go to free my soul from the pain I can’t let go
Your love (your love) is a healing place
In your strong yet gentle arms I find shelter from life’s storms
Lost in your embrace I find amazing grace
Your love is a healing place
Your love is a healing place
………
Lost in your embrace I find amazing grace
Your love is a healing place
Your love is a healing place

A Patient’s Prayer

Smilin’ on the outside
While I’m cryin’ on the inside
Why can‘t I just let you know
Why is it that I can’t show you
Who I really am

Behind my mask, beneath my shell
If you look hard you will find
A lonely child with a sad sweet smile
A special friend of mine
That part of me I won’t let you see
Unless I know it’s safe
Let me open up,let me learn to trust
For this, O Lord, I pray

Or I’ll keep smilin’ on the outside
While I’m cryin’ on the inside
Afraid to let you really know
Scared you’d leave me if I showed you
Who I really am
