I have chosen to write this song in order to share some of my painful experiences in life. God has healed my past pains and I have no doubt that he can heal yours as well.

I wrote this song because I wanted to let people know that the road to follow Christ is not always easy. You can't always count on family or friends to help ease some pains, especially if they are the source of it. In the end, all any of us have is GOD, THE CREATOR.We must remember that no matter what we are going through, we can take it to the "ULTIMATE HEALER", GOD!!!!!

"ONLY GOD CAN HEAL"

By:Moses Billups & Shyrita Washington



[VERSE ONE]

HERE I AM ALONE
NEEDING YOU TO CARRY ON
FAMILY FRIENDS THEY ALL HAVE GONE THEIR OWN WAY

I NEED YOU LORD TO MEND MY HEART
WITHOUT YOU I'LL FALL APART
I CAN'T LIVE LIFE WITHOUT YOU BEING THERE
YOU ARE MY EVERYTHING

(CHORUS)X2

ONLY GOD CAN HEAL MY PAIN
ONLY HE CAN STOP THE RAIN
ONLY GOD CAN HEAL THIS PAIN
SAID HE'LL DO IT ALL FOR ME
IF I ONLY BELIEVE

[VERSE TWO]

MY FRIENDS THEY DON'T BELIEVE IN ME
(MY FAMILY TOO)-THEY DON'T FEEL I'VE BEEN REDEEMED
LORD YOU KNOW JUST HOW MUCH IT HURTS
I PRAISE YOUR NAME IT'S ALL I AM WORTH

I BEGAN TO REALLY SEE
WHO WERE MY FRIENDS
I BEGAN TO REALLY SEE
WHERE MY FAMILY BEGAN
THROUGH THE PAIN, ABUSE, AND HURT
THEY JUST DIDN'T UNDERSTAND
WHY I TOOK YOUR HAND
LORD I'M YOURS AND YOUR ALL I NEED ( LORD, OH LORD) REPEAT 3X
PLEASE HOLD ME CLOSE, YES I BELIEVE THAT

[CHORUS]

[BRIDGE]

WHEN DARK CLOUDS COME MY WAY
HE IS MY COMFORT ZONE ( MY COMFORT ZONE)
THERE ARE TRIALS AND TRIBULATIONS I'M GONNA HAVE TO FACE
BUT NOT ON MY OWN (NOT ON MY OWN)
WHENEVER I CALL ON HIM
I KNOW THAT HE'LL HEAR ME (HE'LL HEAR ME)
AND BASED ON ALL THESE THINGS
I CAN DEPEND AND NEVER HAVE TO WORRY

[LEAD OUT]

OH, I WON'T HAVE TO WORRY YALL NO
IS THERE ANYBODY OUT THERE TONIGHT
WHOSE GONE THROUGH SOME PAIN, IN YOUR LIFE
I'M A LIVING WITNESS
THAT YOU DON'T HAVE TO GO THROUGH THAT PAIN ALONE
LET ME TELL YOU, JUST WHO I TOOK MY PAIN TO
NOT MY MOTHER, NOT MY FATHER
NOT MY SISTER, AND NOT MY BROTHER
BUT GOD, IS THE ONE I CALLED ON
LATE IN THE MIDNIGHT HOUR
CAN'T NOBODY TELL IT, LIKE I CAN
WHAT THE LORD HAS DONE FOR ME, NOBODY, NOBODY
SEE YOU WEREN'T THERE, WHEN HE CAME AND FOUND ME
IN SO MUCH PAIN, FROM MY SURROUNDINGS
GOD STEPPED IN, RIGHT ON TIME
HEALED MY HEART, AND HE FIXED MY MIND
YES, ONLY GOD CAN, I KNOW HE CAN, I KNOW HE CAN
