Gord Lang - If I'd Never Felt the Pain lyrics

rate me

I remember days of sorrow when my weakness turned to shame

I felt totally abandoned though I called upon Your name

The accusers voice through others said that my faith was just too weak

Heaven surely gave an answer to the ones who weren't so meek

But one day I met the Healer in the most conspicuous place

And I found release from all the pain through His Amazing Grace

Now you ask me would I change things if I faced it all again

But I could never tell you of His healing touch if I'd never felt the pain

Well she captured my devotion through the good times and the bad

She was more than just a helper – she's the best Friend that I had

But one day she graduated – this world couldn't hold her down

Now she's dressed in robes of righteousness and she wears a victor's crown

But my lonely desperation was heard in Heaven above

And my mourning turned to dancing through the tender touch of love

Now you ask me would I change things if I faced it all again

But I could never tell you of His comfort if I'd never felt the pain

Now I glory in my weaknesses so His power can flow through me

Showing others tangled by this life that they can be set free

And I'm totally persuaded that there's nothing in this life

That can separate me from the love that I find in Jesus Christ

And though I get discouraged by the struggles of this earth

And sometimes disappointments make me wonder at its worth

Then the still small voice within me reminds me once again

Of the hope that waits to be revealed to those who've felt the pain
