I live with a body wracked with pain,
So insurmountable it is too,
No-one can help me ease it,
They said there's nothing they can do!
I have suffered and suffered in agony,
No light at the end a tunnel for me,
Pain and torment the meal of each minute,
There was no way out for me.
Specialists galore and all the same…
Saying my pain can never go away,
It will continue to deteriorate,
And it does so every day.
So there I was, grasping at straws,
As desperate as one can be…!
I needed help, I needed relief,
Fear of the future was all I could see.
I live with pain most constantly,
It never goes away…
This pain I can deal with,
And I do so every waking day.
But when it's out of control,
And I can't get up from my bed,
For the pain is so insurmountable,
My life is being lived in dread!
Dread at the very thought…
Of trying to get through my life in pain,
Many tears I have shed, so many,
Because it's driving me insane!
So it was suggested I see a Faith Healer,
And what a thought I had,
A crock of foolhardy nonsense!
I thought it was pretty sad!
But I had nothing to lose,
And though I really did doubt…
I thought I'd give it a try,
And try to rid this pain, eke it out!
In as much as I could try…
And explain what came to pass for me,
I couldn't, I really couldn't,
For it baffles and bemuses me.
Strange things transpired that night,
Things I couldn't define,
And all I know is this…
Finally, peace became mine.
For the pain of the day and it was agony,
Eased and almost went away,
Sceptical, yes I truly was…
And now! Well, what can I say?
When I went into that room that night,
In so much pain I was in…
But when I came out again…
I had a feeling of peace within.
My pain had been lightened,
I couldn't believe it to be so,
But what can't speak can't lie,
For a lot of my pain…where did it go?
I was back to my pain that I live with each day,
A pain I deal with the best I can,
And it took me back to that level,
And now, in Faith Healers, yes, I'm a fan!
How can I doubt what happened,
And how do I describe my pain,
How do I put into words, what I don't know…?
But for sure, I am returning once again…
For the straw I was grasping to so tightly,
Has withheld the strength inside,
Gave me a chance to help myself,
And behind a mask no more I will have to hide!
I can and do deal with my pain each day,
And try to plod on with my life…
Keep my smile upon my face,
To hide the fear and strife!
Is it so? YES, it is,
For how can I not believe any more!
I witnessed first hand the power in it,
I have opened another door.
A door to a brighter future,
I have faith in the healing that was undertaken,
And now, finally, at last,
I know I have not been forsaken!
Desperation took me to this woman,
My last resort, my last straw,
And look what it did for me!
It has opened a brand new door!
