Jesus my brother, come heal my heart, there’s a piece missing, it’s falling apart
And my life’s leaking out through the hole left behind… Leaving me empty, helpless and blind
While I am empty Lord fill me, while I am blind teach me to see
And while I am helpless come take my part, Jesus my brother, heal my heart
There’s a sea of emotion, I’m caught in a storm, churning with feelings tangled and torn
My love built a ship it was swept off and lost, now it lies broken twisted and tossed
I am an ocean Lord, walk upon me, calm the waves of this pounding sea
And when the sun rises we’ll be right at the start, Jesus my brother, heal my heart
Jesus, my brother come to me now, this wound needs to close Lord and I don’t know how
My bandages fail me, they’re only pretend, illusions are torn before feelings can mend
Breathe on me Jesus, I know you can heal it, if pain is my teacher I’m ready to feel it
And make of my pieces a work of your art, Jesus my brother, heal my heart
Heal my heart, heal my heart, heal my heart…
