I CAN FEEL THE TOUCH OF YOUR PRESENCE
You’re healing me, You’re healing me (repeat)
You give me beauty for my coal
And completely restore my soul
To Your table You beckon me
You’ve set me free
Jesus so faithfully
I can feel the touch of Your Presence
Restoring me, restoring me (repeat)
You give strength unto the weak
You give courage to the meek
You will always care for me
You’ve set me free
Jesus so faithfully
