An Answer Today

If you carry scars
And have been betrayed,
The price for your pain
Has already been paid.

The wounds which you suffered
Were borne on the cross
So you might be healed
from your pain and your loss.

God's great compassion
For you and for me
Moved Him to offer
His Son on the tree.

The blood that was shed
Brought redemption from sin
And healing from illness
Or wounding within.

The cross offers help
For your problems today
As a sweet healing balm...
God's love to convey.

How great is our God,
Who opened His heart,
His great lovingkindness
And joy to impart.

"Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits: who forgiveth all thine iniquities; who healeth all thy diseases; who redeemeth thy life from destruction; who crowneth thee with lovingkindness and tender mercies; who satisfieth thy mouth with good things; so that thy youth is renewed like the eagle's."
Psalm 103:2-5 KJV
