Lyrics
When innocence is trampled When TV’s tragedies are real When strength and hope are not enough We live on, through the strength Of others prayers CHORUS Comforter Come Bind up the bro-ken-hear-ted Comforter Come Strengthen all that remains Comforter Come Dry up all their tears Comforter Come Chase away all fears When the unthinkable has happened When evil’s plan is brought to life And we cry till we have no more strength to cry We turn and pray to our God above CHORUS When the enemy seems to have won When there’s no courage to hold on In the face of distress and bitterness We look to Him And His unfailing love CHORUS BRIDGE What can erase the smile of a child When we hold onto their memories The lights shining through their smiling faces Their-even-brighter… in Heaven now CHORUS
