Friend Of A Wounded Heart - Avalon

Smile, make them think you’re happy

Lie, and say that things are fine

And hide that empty longing that you feel

Don’t ever show it, just keep your heart concealed

Why are the days so lonely?

I wonder where, where can a heart go free?

And who will dry the tears that no one sees?

There must be someone to share your silent dreams

Caught like a leaf in the wind

Looking for a friend, where can you turn?

Whisper the words of a prayer

And you’ll find Him there, arms open wide, love in His eyes

Jesus, He meets you where you are

Oh, Jesus, He heals your secret scars

All the love you’re longing for is Jesus

The friend of a wounded heart

Joy, comes like the the morning

Hope, deepens as you grow

And peace, beyond the reaches of your soul

Comes blowing through you, for love has made you whole

Once like a leaf in the wind

Looking for a friend, where could you turn?

You spoke the words of a prayer

And you found Him there, arms open wide, love in His eyes
