My Heartache Healer is Also Yours

I have never done this, but I am stealing a video that Patty from Pitterle Postings posted just today. I know some of you read both of ours so I apologize. But I wanted to make sure everyone gets to see it because it is so special with an important message. I've watched it 4 times today and cried every time. I recently found a Christian radio station that I listen to sometimes in the car. It is nice to be able to hear new songs that testify of Jesus. This one is paired with beautiful pictures. I hope you enjoy it. Thanks, Patty! Please forgive me for stealing.



Nichole Nordeman - I Am

Pencil marks on a wall,
I wasn't always this tall.
You scattered some monsters from beneath my bed.
You watched my team win.
You watched my team lose.
You watched when my bicycle went down again.

CHORUS:
And When I was weak unable to speak,
still I could call You by name,
and I said Elbow healer, Superhero,
come if You can, and You said I Am

Only 16, life is so mean, what kind of curfew is at ten PM
You saw my mistakes, You watched my heart break
Heard when I swore I'd never love again

CHORUS:
When I was weak, unable to speak,
still I could call You by name,
and I said Heartache Healer, Secret-keeper,
be my Best Friend and You said I Am.

You saw me wear white, by pale candlelight,
I said forever to what lies ahead
two kids and a dream, with kids that can scream
too much it might seem when it's two Am.

CHORUS:
When I am weak, unable to speak,
still I will call You by name-
Oh Shepherd, Savior, Pasture-maker,
hold on to my hand, and You say I am.

The winds of change,
And circumstance blow in and all around
us so we find a foothold that's familiar,
And bless the moments that we feel You nearer.
Life had begun, I was woven and spun,
You let the angels dance around the throne. Who can say when,
But they'll dance again, when I am free and finally headed home.

CHORUS:
I will be weak, unable to speak,
still I will call You by name-
Creator, Maker, Life-sustainer,
Comforter, Healer, My Redeemer,
Lord and King, Beginning and
the End, I Am, yes, I Am.

  2. Nicole Nordeman is great, isn't she? Also, is the radio station KLOVE? I've been listening to it pretty often. I used to listen to Z88.3 in Orlando, and it was a lot like KLOVE. I still listen on the computer to Z88.3.

  3. I hadn't heard of KLOVE before. I'll have to listen to it. The one I've been listening to is 1120 AM. Thanks for sharing the others with me.

  4. Valerie, you know I never mind when you borrow from me. I consider it the highest compliment that a friend can give! I hope all your friends love it as much as we do. It is a message that needs to be shared.
