Matthew Ward Faces Once More
It was a crazy time for me
No way to know if it was meant to be
All that I knew was that you were both gone
And I was left behind to carry on
Not a fading memory
My thoughts of both of you still captured me
Sometimes amazed at the pain I could bear
As I reached out my hands to know I'm there
I've got a long, long way yet to go
Before I see your faces once more
And to feel His gentle arms around us
And the love that will surround us
Will erase all the pain that came before
It didn't take too long to see
The little walls I'd built inside of me
Never again would I be hurt this way
A heart of stone, the price I'd have to pay
Now the years have come and gone
It was a miracle You worked upon
Watching new life spring from ashes and dust
As I fell in Your arms and learned to trust
I've got a long, long way yet to go
Before I see your faces once more
And to feel His gentle arms around us
And the love that will surround us
Will erase all the pain that came before
Will erase all the pain that came before
I've got a long, long way yet to go
Before I see your faces once more
