Healing Power

Wounded and lost, I was in much despair. How much suffering must this heart endure? After years of pain, I lived without care, you found my fractured soul; you had a cure. From within the heart flowed healing power, I was at death’s door; now I’m whole and well. your solid love pumps in my heart this hour, Folks thought I would never come from hurts shell Many times you could’ve thrown in the towel, somehow you knew my rejection was the pain. On most days, I would be mean and just scowl, darling, you sheltered me from the rain. Sweetheart, you healed my heart, now it’s brand new, we’re one, my love; I’m blessed to have found you.
