Good morning friends, as we all continue to process the tragedy that took place in Uvalde where 19 students and 2 adults lost their lives at Robb Elementary School I thought the song “Healer” performed by Casting Crowns would be a good focal point for today’s blog.
When the world gets turned upside down we need to remember that there is only One who can offer real healing, true comfort, and lasting peace. Take some time today to meditate on the lyrics below and to listen to the song via the YouTube link at the bottom.
It’s hard to see the storm blowing over
Anytime soon
It’s hard to hear any hope in the headlines
Oh, I don’t know what’s true
We been trusting in the broken
To make us whole
But there’s no new rescue coming
Let’s do the one we’ve always known
We need the healer
We don’t need another hero
We need the healer
Deep down every hurting heart knows
We need the healer
And only Jesus is the healer
The whole world’s looking for something
But what we need is someone (need is someone)
And every road leads back to one name
When all the searching is done
‘Cause there’s no world view, no religion
That can make the blind eye see
Let the eyes of our heart be open
To the healing that we need
We need the healer
We don’t need another hero
We need the healer
Deep down every hurting heart knows
We need the healer
And only Jesus is the healer (You’re the healer)
More than comfort we need the king
More than gifts, we need the giver
More than blessings we need Your presence
More than the healing, we need the healer
More than comfort we need the king
More than gifts, we need the giver
More than blessings we need Your presence
More than the healing, we need the healer
More than comfort we need the king
More than gifts, we need the giver
More than blessings we need Your presence
More than the healing
