The Healer - Woods of Birnam

Why? The question that is never far away But the healing doesn't come from the explained Jesus please don't let this go in vain You're all I have All that remains So here I am What's left of me Where glory meets my suffering I'm alive Even though a part of me has died You take my heart and breathe it back to life I fall into Your arms open wide When the hurt and the healer collide Breathe Sometimes I feel it's all that I can do Pain so deep that I can hardly move Just keep my eyes completely fixed on You Lord take hold and pull me through So here I am What's left of me Where glory meets my suffering I'm alive Even though a part of me has died You take my heart and breathe it back to life I fall into Your arms open wide When the hurt and the healer collide It's the moment when humanity Is overcome by majesty When grace is ushered in for good And all our scars are understood When mercy takes its rightful place And all these questions fade away When out of the weakness we must bow And hear You say "It's over now" I'm alive And even though a part of me has died You take this heart and breathe it back to life I fall into Your arms open wide When the hurt and the healer collide Jesus come and break my fear Wake my heart and take my tears Find Your glory even here When the hurt and the healer collide Jesus come and break my fear Wake my heart and take my tears Find Your glory even here When the hurt and the healer collide Jesus come and break my fear Wake my heart, take my tears Find Your glory even here

Solitary dancing Leaving where the heart was Leaving like a lover In the dark Living with the weight of the world Looking for a landing Longing to be homeward Longing for a mother In the dark Hoping there's a way in the world Homeless Homeless Homeless Homeless And I keep solo dancing With a hold on the cold alone A multitude of color Shimmers on the ocean Ripples of a notion In the dark Figures in the waves of the world Homeless Homeless Homeless Homeless In the tides ever dancing With a hold on the cold alone Keep on dancing Keep on dancing Keep on dancing Keep on dancing Keep on dancing Keep on dancing With a hold on the cold alone With a hold on the cold alone

Closer Dramatic score and a mother Who could not stay with the other Refugees in this hell Later Showing no mercy We capture An angry mob with a liar Who couldn't pretend anymore Come closer Please close my eyes and stay So close to me your island will be lost and found again Closer She took my heart and she left her Confusion here instead Like stale air in my head Come closer Please close my eyes and stay So close to me Your island will be lost and found again Again Closer Our eyes dried out and I told her "I came, I saw, I conquered" Just trying to make it work Come closer Come closer Come closer Please close my eyes and stay So close to me Your island will be lost and found again Come closer now This close to me My heart
