A song about healing

Healing song  - Rob Barrett

Healing Song for Wendy, demo

This was written for my friend who has already had a really tough year and just found out she has cancer.

We're not asking you to part the ocean

we're not asking  you to stop the sun

we're not asking  you feed the thousands

or for our will to  be done

we're not asking you to send down manna

we're not asking that you still the storm

we're not asking that you walk on water

or that the veil be torn

You told us to ask and to believe

so we're asking you to receive

(chorus)

your smallest touch

your gentle breeze

to make our sister Wendy clean

your little finger

reaching down

to make things right

with your light

and heal

we're not asking you to end hunger

we're not asking for world peace

we're not asking you to stop the fighting

or to make dissension cease

We're not asking for world revival

we're not asking you for Godly kings

we're not asking you for your arrival

or the end of worldly things

but You told us to ask and to believe

so we're asking you to receive

(chorus)

Like your Son we pray

your will not ours

but stay with her

and carry her

through tough days and long hours

(chorus)
