It Is True

-From the Passover Musical I wrote, "On Eagles' Wings"- Yehovah, now I see Somebody cares for me Someone has listened to my cry Oh, could it truly be? Could that be light I see Somewhere beyond this dreary sky? Is it true? Is it true? Is it true? I know now it is true I have been known by You You have poured out Your love on me When we knew pain and harm You stretched Your mighty arm Showed us You care, our pain You see Would the King of all Creation Come to heal an aching soul? Would He see a broken heart And in compassion make it whole? Would He still bend down and listen To the groanings of a slave? Would He see a dying people Come to raise them from the grave? It is true, it is true, it is true And now, since it is true I know my help is You Unto Your throne I lift my eyes In sorrow I know this Great is Your faithfulness And Your compassion past the skies! Would the King of all Creation Come to heal an aching soul? Would He see a broken heart And in compassion make it whole? Would He still bend down and listen To the groanings of a slave? Would He see a dying people Come to raise them from the grave? It is true, it is true, it is true Before I was distressed and lost But He has shown me it is true Through each day of our affliction He has been afflicted too Never in the days gone by Has any god redeemed a slave Our Yehovah—who is like Him? He saw pain and chose to save! Though I am a slave now In my heart I am already free Knowing that Yehovah keeps His word Is hope enough for me Would the King of all Creation Come to heal an aching soul? Would He see a broken heart And in compassion make it whole? Would He still bend down and listen To the groanings of a slave? Would He see a dying people Come to raise them from the grave? Yes, the King of all Creation Came to heal my aching soul! Yes, He saw my broken heart And in compassion made it whole! Yes, He still bends down and listens To the groanings of a slave! Yes, He saw a dying people Came to raise them from the grave! It is true, it is true, it is true Only You!
