Healed

Your love is tested
time and time again
in my fevering hands
while faith lies await

You are for me
eyes constantly trained
on my stumbling and stuttering
hands outstretched
I'm lifting my eyes
I'm taking a step

the scarred hands
that reach unfailingly
familiarly to my side.
the holes side
to which my faith
clings

Your scars remind me
I've never been special
my pain is not unique
my suffering not undescribable

if my sorrow were water
to hopeful flames,
then yours was wine.
When I with wisdom look within
even my scars are concealed
for by your stripes
I was healed
