We spent several years as part of a small, home-based church fellowship. One of the hallmarks of that group was the worship through music. It was authentic, challenging, and moving in a way I had not previously known was possible. This song is a tribute to that experience. The inclusion of many dear friends on the choir section captures how significant that experience was for me and makes this track a personal favorite.
lyrics
Healer of hearts, You bind up the broken
Mend every wound, fill us with You
Compassionate friend, rest for the weary
You carry us on through valleys unknown
Worthy, worthy are You
There is none like You
We sing Your praise
Hallelujah, hallelujah, Lord we bless Your name
Namer of stars, Your glory surrounds us
The heavens declare Your majestic grace
Maker of life, You speak into being
Every breath is from You, each beat of our hearts
From You, to You, for You, in You
All things move and find their being
All glory is Yours forever
Shepherd of souls, guide and defender
Faithful to light each step of our way
Strength for the poor, hope for the hopeless
Freely bringing Your kingdom in power
And so we sing
