Friend of a wounded heart

Smile, make them think you're happy
Lie, and say that things are fine
And hide that empty longing that you feel, don't ever show it
Just keep your heart concealed
Why are the days so lonely?
I wonder where, where can a heart go free?
And who will dry the tears that no one sees?
There must be someone to share your silent dreams
Caught like a leaf in the wind
Looking for a friend, where can you turn?
Whisper the words of a prayer
And you'll find Him there, arms open wide, love in His eyes

Jesus, He meets you where you are
Oh, Jesus, He heals your secret scars
All the love you're longing for is Jesus
The friend of a wounded heart

Joy, comes like the the morning
Hope, deepens as you grow
and peace, beyond the reaches of your soul
Comes blowing through you
for love has made you whole
Once like a leaf in the wind
Looking for a friend, where could you turn?
You spoke the words of a prayer
And you found Him there, arms open wide, love in His eyes
