I didn't come here
Looking for a cure
I didn't come here
Thinking I would get over what happened
I came here
Out of sheer desperation
I came here because I thought
There may be someone there to convince me to stay
Because I had begun thinking
About leaving it all behind again
And what I was given
Wasn't a cure
I wasn't just told
To get over it
I was given touch so compelling and sincere
That it brought me to tears
I was given prayer
With words from the heart
Words with such genuine care behind them
Words that I know were given by You
Words that gave me hope
That it would all be okay
I met people
That gave me a reason to stay
At least long enough
To get to know them
To share my story
And to hear theirs
I was not only spoken to, but listened to
In a way that conveyed unquestionable care
And I worshiped
With these people
Worshiped with a sense of community and closeness God
That I have never known
I felt God
I felt these people
These people that I barely knew
Pouring their hearts out to Him
And I could not help but to be touched
To be saved by such love
When I consider leaving it all behind
Which I still do sometimes
I think about how we worshiped that night on the beach
I think about how truly loved and cared for I felt
And I can't bring myself
To leave that behind just yet
