Poem on Psalm 147:3

Stanza 1
He sees the wounds unseen,
The sorrow that words cannot tell,
The weight that lingers in silence,
The ache buried in the soul,
And He draws near to heal.

Stanza 2
Not just the body but the heart,
Not just the sickness but the spirit,
For He is a healer of all things,
Mending the shattered places,
Restoring what was thought lost.

Stanza 3
He does not rush the process,
He does not ignore the pain,
He binds the wounds with care,
He pours out mercy like oil,
And comforts with gentle hands.

Stanza 4
So let the broken come to Him,
Let the weary rest in His grace,
For He does not turn away,
He does not leave them alone,
And in His presence, healing flows.
