The arrow pierces into my soul
It buries deep, the point so cold.
The archer's hand once held mine
Such love and joy - our hearts entwined
Poison begins to seep inside
In God's hand I must abide
The stinging pain brings doubt and fear
The one I loved and held so dear
How can it be - why can't he see
O dear Lord, please strengthen me
My heart resists the walls of anger
My faith stands up against what I cannot answer
The poison tries to ravage me
Doubt inflicts such misery
Lord, I call upon Your Name
So distraught, Your word I claim
Your hands they lift me out of this pit
My eyes on Yours I now fix
I'm taken up from this fleeting life
And carried to a different plight
Angry voice crying out
I'm confused, what's this all about
Your eyes look on the men You touched
The ***** the blind - You gave so much
There, the woman with her son
You met her when it seemed his life was done
Year after year that lame man did wait
Until one day, You changed his fate
So may faces once needed You
How could they now just turn from You
How deeply You knew the heart of man
Deceptive, fallen - hopeless circumstance
Yet, You laid down all you have
Despite the arrows, You became our salve
Forgive me, Lord, and make of me
That servant like Your Son I'll be
I'll heal the broken and give sight to the blind
Although, there'll be those I leave behind
The hurt, it stings as the arrows plunge deep
But, it's your life, not mine - I will seek
Thank You, Lord, for showing again
Your, love, Your grace - and what I gain in the end
