To say that cancer has “touched” us all fails to adequately describe the grabbing, twisting, tearing hands it lays upon our coworkers, our friends, our family.

To say we’ve all been “affected” by cancer doesn’t begin to express the gut-wrenching, heartrending devastation that cancer can leave in its wake.

I wrote this song for a friend that was diagnosed with cancer because I wanted my friend to remember, and I wanted to remind myself, that there is something bigger than cancer.  And because sometimes the fear that seeks to invade our soul is a much more deadly threat than anything that might attack our body.

Heal me from – lyrics:

I believe that You can take me
all the places I don’t want to go

And I believe that You can bring me out

In my heart I know that all I fear quakes
in the presence of Your throne I know
So let me say I believe that…

You can heal me from
this doubt that keeps me down
the fear that keeps me looking in

And You can take me to
a place of trust in You
where I am seeing nothing else

I believe that You can take me
all the places that I need to go

And I believe that You can bring me through
