"Healing Waters" by Michelle Tumes

I've built a bridge
All of my strength cannot cross over
I stand at the edge
The end of a road that I have followed
Sinking from the weight of my own world
Wanting the waves of Your ways to wash my feet

[Chorus:]
Healing waters
Healing waters
Solace flows through the river of forgiveness to my soul
Oh, I need You
Healing waters

Pour over me water to clean all my intentions
Baptizing streams
I swim in the freedom of redemption
Floating on the sea of purity
Knowing I can dive in the love that rescues me

[Chorus:]
Healing waters
Healing waters
Solace flows through the river of forgiveness to my soul
Oh, I need You
Healing waters

Memories are raging high
Floods so deep they touch the sky
All the things I've done to You
All the parts of a life untrue
Healing comes from outstretched hands
Saving me from what I am
Carry me
Carry me


I first heard this song ages ago on tape, from WoW 1999. (Seems ancient now, lol.) I loved it the first time, but I really appreciate it now. Now is a time of healing...indeed, some old wounds have still not been healed, but I think it was because I was like a little kid keeping my cut away from the rubbing alcohol. I know that the wound will heal by itself, but not wholly and with the cleansing that comes with the medicine. It might sting a little, but I'm ready to release my grip on these things and receive the pain of the healing process. I just want to know and desire Him with everything that I have, not holding any area of my life back...to experience freedom in His arms and love in His eyes, to have Him be everything to me--no earthly thing can compare.

So I'm ready now. I'm ready for the healing...bring on the divine rubbing alcohol.
