A song about healing

                                                       "The Healing Has Begun"
                                                               By: Matthew West

You have carried the weight of your secret for way too long
Thinking if there is a place called forgiveness you don't belong
Oh, but freedom can never be found behind those walls
So just let 'em fall, just let 'em fall
Oh, the healing has begun
Oh, the healing has begun

How long has been since you felt anything but shame
Child, lift up your eyes 'cause mercy remembers your name
And those tears you've been holding back, let 'em fall down like rain
'Cause today is the day, yeah today is the day
Oh, the healing has begun [x4]

Halellujah, halellujah
Just lift your eyes
Lay it down
What once was lost
Has now been found, oh

There's a world full of people dying from broken hearts
Holding on to the guilt, thinking they fell too far
So don't be afraid to show 'em your beautiful scars
'Cause they're the proof, yeah you're the proof
Oh, the healing has begun [x6]

It is time to let the healing begin. We all have suffered and been hurt, but holding onto the past will only destroy what you have for today. Allow God to start the healing process, don't be afraid. Isn't it time to forgive the past. Unforgiveness will only hold you back, don't allow it to hold you back any longer. Forgiveness starts with you, it is your choice. Don't let the past destroy what God wants to do for you today and in the future.
