How long must I struggle within my soul,
with sorrow in my heart every day?
(Psalm 13:2; NLT).
1. Son of God,
We cry to you,
For life is very bleak.
2. Have pity on us, Lord,
For we’re in anguish,
Sick, and weak.
3. Touch us,
And forgive our sins,
For we belong to you,
4. And help us
To forgive all those
Who sin against us, too.
5. Heal us, Lord, in body,
And in mind, and heart,
And soul,
6. For you, Lord, are the only one
Whose touch
Can make us whole.
