Come To the Healing Stream

I see the tears of tribulations
and life filled with afflictions;
but hear the blessed savior scream...
Come to the Healing Stream!

My arms are open for you,
I am sent to see you through.
Come in, come on O weary pilgrim,
Come to the Healing Stream!

Though sin has held you down
and sorrows make you frown.
When your light becomes dim,
Come to the Healing Stream.

Death betides at last breath
but there is life after death,
Come fulfil this divine dream;
Come to the Healing Stream.

I will give you hope and health,
and turn your stress to strength.
Though your chances seem slim,
come to the Healing Stream.

I truly enjoyed reading your poetry this morning Adeleke. It has been awhile since I have stopped to read the poetry of any of my poetry friends. Will read some more later. Hope you are doing well. :) Carol
