When I Heal - Sandi Patty Lyrics

Shooting arrows in the darkness.
Holding fire in your hands.
Oh and yesterday's forsaken
Cause the innocence was taken away.
And so the ashes blow around me.
My fears rise up to fan the flame.
But in the midst of all my sorrow,
I hear a distant sweet tomorrow
Call my name.
(Chorus):
When I heal,
When I learn,
When I face all that I've been running from.
When I see,
When I know that my time has come.
When I can feel the sun again,
Now the morning light's my friend.
When the ash is a flame.
When I heal.
Secrets locked away deep inside.
Shadows are never far behind.
But what rattles in the closet
Can be driven from the darkness today.
(Chorus)
Climbing the stairway of regrets,
It's hard to fathom what he forgives, he forgets.
(Chorus)
(repeat 2x):
I can feel the sun again,
Now the morning light's my friend.
When the ash is a flame.
When I heal.
