Lord, heal me

And I will be healed

Reach into my weakness

And infuse wholeness

I will not be afraid

Cause You are my praise

I will not be ashamed

Cause I trust in Your name

Let me wash

Where Your healing fountains

Steadily flow and gush

Let me touch Your grace

I want to see Your face

Heal me

As Your springs wash over me

Lay me down

Where the waters are still

Lay Your hand on my brow

Shatter this crippling pain

Wracking my mortal frame

Touch my life

Fill me, Light of Life

Put darkness to flight

Make me a vessel of health

And supernatural healing

Filled with Your breath

And the touch of Your Spirit

Send Your word

And deliver me from my affliction

Lord, heal me

And I will be healed.
