Take this hurt, empty this cup
I've been drinking from it long enough
Let it spill all the poison that it holds
I am thirsty but not for this
I can taste on my lips
the sweet nectar of letting this all go
Lift me up, Make me well
So in my heart Love may dwell
Make me well, make me well, make me well
Lift me up, Make me whole
Make me peaceful in my Soul
It is well, it is well, it is well
Take this anger and it's clenches
There's no safety in these trenches
Let this battle finally be won
I want to fight for peace not war
Wield my sword of truth but only for
Opening and letting this all go
Lift me up, Make me well
So in my heart Love may dwell
Make me well, make me well, make me well
Lift me up, Make me whole
Make me peaceful in my Soul
It is well, it is well, it is well
Take this fear from my head
I want to wear a crown instead
Filled with jewels of compassion,
courage, grace and love
Move these mountains, lift these veils
I haven't lost, I haven't failed
I've been forged, fired, revealed
I am healed
Lift me up, Make me well
So in my heart Love may dwell
Make me well, make me well, make me well
Lift me up, Make me whole
Make me peaceful in my Soul
It is well, it is well, it is well

You brought tears to my eyes this morning with this song!I love you two!
Josie
I remember the tears in my eyes when I first heard you sing this song so many years ago when you came to Inlet, NY and it popped up on my playlist this morning. I had to listen to it a half a dozen times, look up the words and sing along with it as a prayer for not only for myself, but also for the world. Your messages are always so insightful, hopeful, and beautiful. Sending love to you both in this challenging time in our world. Miss you very much and hope you are doing well!
