Take Away Your Pain Dedicated to every hurting man out there that needs to let go and be made whole

 

Take Away Your Pain

The world is full of pain they say

And that's proven to be true

For pain is all I ever see

When I look at you.

A tortured soul with wounded eyes

Huddled all alone

Looking like a broken bird

With no nest to call home.

Heart full of massive injuries

A ball of unwound hurt

A man of pride but deep inside

You feel you have no worth.

It makes me mad to look at you

And the schemes that you employ

To hide the fact that you're off track

And such an sad, lost boy.

When I could bring such joy to you

If it were just allowed

And I would humbly give my heart

If you were not so proud.

You're crippled by such bitterness

And a past you can't forgive

Fighting with every ragged breath

Each second that you live.

I wish you knew God's love for you

Before your strength is gone

 And that you would read that scripture

That says bitterness dries the bones.

Forgive me if I've hurt you

Forgive others that have, too

Don't hold to real and imagined hurts

But cling to what is true.

Pain, it is an awful thing

Believe me, I know it well

Pain can take a paradise

And turn it in to hell.

But love can heal the deepest cuts

And make one whole again

Just take my heart, and God's outstretched hand

And we'll take away your pain.
