A Friend Of A Wounded Heart
Smile, make 'em think you're happy,
Lie, and say that things are fine,
And hide that empty longing that you feel
Don't ever show it, just keep your heart concealed.
Why, are the days so lonely?
I wonder where, where, can the heart go free,
And who will dry the tears that no one sees?
There must be someone to share your silent dreams.
Caught like a leaf in the wind
Looking for a friend,
Where can you turn?
Whisper the words of a prayer
And you'll find Him there,
Arms open wide, love in His eyes.
Jesus, He meets you where you are,
Oh, Jesus, He heals your secret scars
All the love you're longing for is Jesus,
A friend of a wounded heart.
Joy, comes like the morning,
And hope, deepens as you grow,
And peace beyond the reaches of your soul
Comes flowing through you,
For love has made you whole.
Once like a leaf in the wind
Looking for a friend,
Where could you turn?
You spoke the words of a prayer
And you found Him there,
Arms open wide, love in His eyes.
Jesus, He meets you where you are,
Oh, Jesus, He heals your secret scars
All the love you're longing for is Jesus,
A friend of a wounded heart.
He meets you where you are!
Oh, Jesus, He heals your secret scars!
All the love you're longing for,
All the love that you need!
Oh, is Jesus, a friend of a wounded heart.
Oh, oh, a friend of a wounded heart!
Wayne Watson
Jesus is a friend to the weary,
to the poor and lonely and lost.
A friend to the heartbroken, the weak,
and those who in the storms of life are tossed.
For He has His arms stretched open wide,
and it is He who we can cling to until the storm has passed,
and gone out with life's ever flowing tide.
P.R.W.
I Stand Amazed In The Presence
I stand amazed in the presence
of Jesus the Nazarene,
and wonder how he could love me,
a sinner, condemned, unclean.
How marvelous! How wonderful!
And my song shall ever be:
How marvelous! How wonderful
is my Savior's love for me!
For me it was in the garden
he prayed: "Not my will, but thine."
He had no tears for his own griefs,
but sweat-drops of blood for mine.
How marvelous! How wonderful!
And my song shall ever be:
How marvelous! How wonderful
is my Savior's love for me!
In pity angels beheld him,
and came from the world of light
to comfort him in the sorrows
he bore for my soul that night.
How marvelous! How wonderful!
And my song shall ever be:
How marvelous! How wonderful
is my Savior's love for me!
He took my sins and my sorrows,
he made them his very own;
he bore the burden to Calvary,
and suffered and died alone.
How marvelous! How wonderful!
And my song shall ever be:
How marvelous! How wonderful
is my Savior's love for me!
When with the ransomed in glory
his face I at last shall see,
'twill be my joy through the ages
to sing of his love for me.
How marvelous! How wonderful!
And my song shall ever be:
How marvelous! How wonderful
is my Savior's love for me!

Love Lifted Me
I was sinking deep in sin,
Far from the peaceful shore,
Very deeply stained within,
Sinking to rise no more.
But the Master of the sea
Heard my despairing cry,
From the waters lifted me.
Now safe am I.
Love lifted me! Love lifted me!
When nothing else could help,
Love lifted me.
Love lifted me! Love lifted me!
When nothing else could help
Love lifted me.
Souls in danger look above
Jesus completely saves
He will lift you by his love
Out of the angry waves
But the master of the sea
Billows His will obey
He your savior wants to be
Be saved today
Love lifted me! Love lifted me!
When nothing else could help,
Love lifted me.
Love lifted me! Love lifted me!
When nothing else could help
Love lifted me.
Jesus has an amazing love for me;
For my sins He died on cruel calvary's tree.
I cannot even begin to love Him, My Saviour, as much,
As He has loved, and still loves, me.
P.R.W.
And Can It Be That I Should Gain
And can it be that I should gain
an interest in the Savior's blood!
Died he for me? who caused his pain!
For me? who him to death pursued?
Amazing love! How can it be
that thou, my God, shouldst die for me?
Amazing love! How can it be
that thou, my God, shouldst die for me?
Charles Wesley
