Time To Heal
Looking deep inside
I try to find the answers
to all the things that are
tearing at my heart.
I am seeking truth
and praying for redemption
but I need time to heal
for I've been torn apart.
I want to leave the hurt
that I have known behind me
sear the bleeding wounds,
so many still remain.
Even though the scars
may be thick upon me
they are only scars
if I live through the pain.
I am on my knees
begging for sweet mercy
praying for the life
of my dying soul.
Just let me rest a while
within your tender caring
so I can gain the strength
to reach my final goal.
Through the dark of night
the storm may keep on raging
but when the morning comes
the day just might be clear.
Then I'll be on my way
heading toward my future
and in my beating heart
I will hold you near.
