The One Within

Lyrics

Within lives the person we really are And there he lies broken, battered and scarred Rarely making known the hurts that harbor there Pretending not to care bit is it true? Oh, don't fool yourself, for there's an answer Jesus came and for our sins He died And to free the captive that is trapped inside Every sorrow now in faith to Him reveal Asking Him to heal the one within Oh, Lord, heal the one within And, Lord, heal the one who holds his peace And seldom has his say And, Lord, mend the bleeding heart grown cold From the hurts of yesterday Rebuild the ones torn down By all of the blows of life and sin Lord, heal the broken one that lives The one that lives within There's a part of us that we hide so well And of His true state only God can tell With a pleasant face we cover up the frown Of the one who feels cast down living within Oh, we cover up the frown, but don't hide Oh, don't hide the pain that you really feel Cast your cares on Jesus and He will heal All the scars and bruises that you have unveiled For He has never failed, and He never will Oh, I know, I know that He never will Lord, heal the one who holds his peace And seldom has his say And, Lord, mend the bleeding heart grown cold The heart grown cold from yesterday From the hurts of yesterday Rebuild the one torn down By all of the blows of life and sin Lord, heal the broken one that lives within Lord, heal the broken one that lives The one that lives within Won't You do it today? Lord, heal the broken one that lives within Lord, heal the broken one within
