Jesus’ touch

Jesus’ touch healed me
the depths of my sin
sitting in the pew crying
not knowing where to begin

A hand upon my shoulder
not really speaking a word
the weight of all those years
fading, melting away

Jesus’ touch healed me
the weight of my guilt
the chaos of my life
changed by that touch

Coming before you
studying your word
my life healed, renewed
set on a new path
