Healing Touch - Russ Taff

I stare at the door

Trapped in a dream

Held like a captive

By what people see on the outside

They don’t really know

And even with You

I deny what is real

The loving truth is a painful touch

When guilt is all you feel

I want to run away

You’ve got to help me stay

Your healing touch

To know Your love

Just to feel Your strength in me again

The rivers are deep

Where they’re flowing

They’re rolling through me

I want to be free

Shades of truth

Locked up in lies

Days run into days

When I open my eyes

See how far it’s gone

Where do things go wrong

Choices were made

Dreams were pushed aside

Not so much a conscious thought

But resignation

A siege of the heart

But there’s a part that calls to You

Bring me healing

I’ve got to know Your love again

I’ve grown weak

Let Your strength be mine again

The rivers are deep

Where they’re flowing

They’re rolling through me

You’re the only one

Who can save me from myself

(Healing)

If I can make it today

There’s hope for me tomorrow

(Healing)

I can’t make it alone

Just not that strong

The rivers run deep

Where they’re flowing

They all flow through You

So fill me up with Your healing
