Lord Come Heal My Pain
(2001)
Joe Halter/M. Papierski
We
cannot control the events of this world. Out of the despair of hearing the news
that my father-in-law had cancer came this song. We cannot understand God’s plan
but He will provide us with the strength we require to meet the challenges of
life and death.

Life’s not fair. I wish I knew,
Why things happen as they do.
People live and people die.
I can’t explain it. (I) don’t know why.
Some are healed. Some are spared.
Others suffer great despair.
It seems so cruel. It seems so harsh.
I can’t quite figure this (it) all out.
Instrumental
It saddens me. It makes me cry.
I can’t control this human life.
I feel so helpless. (I) feel so small.
My Lord of hope. My Lord of all.
Help me see beyond this life,
(And) To set my sights on paradise.
To trust in You for all I need,
Despite the troubles that I see.
Chorus
Lord come, heal my pain.
Take these burdens please I pray.
Holy Spirit sooth my soul.
Remind me You’re in Control.
Comfort me in my despair.
Touch me. Show me (that) You care.
Dry my tears. Make whole my heart.
Strengthen me as I require.
Instrumental
Bridge
(I) Can’t face these trials by myself.
I need Your courage. I need Your help.
Fill (Illume) my darkness with Your light.
Calm these fears that fill my nights.
Chorus (repeat)
Strengthen me as I require…I know You know what I require.
