Leonard Cohen - Come Healing Lyrics






O gather up the brokenness
And bring it to me now
The fragrance of those promises
You never dared to vow

The splinters that you carry
The cross you left behind
Come healing of the body
Come healing of the mind

And let the heavens hear it
The penitential hymn
Come healing of the spirit
Come healing of the limb

Behold the gates of mercy
In arbitrary space
And none of us deserving
The cruelty or the grace

O solitude of longing
Where love has been confined
Come healing of the body
Come healing of the mind

O see the darkness yielding
That tore the light apart
Come healing of the reason
Come healing of the heart

O troubled dust concealing
An undivided love
The Heart beneath is teaching
To the broken Heart above

O let the heavens falter
And let the earth proclaim:
Come healing of the Altar
Come healing of the Name

O longing of the branches
To lift the little bud
O longing of the arteries
To purify the blood

And let the heavens hear it
The penitential hymn
Come healing of the spirit
Come healing of the limb

O let the heavens hear it
The penitential hymn
Come healing of the spirit
Come healing of the limb

    Two days before Christmas; this song was performed by the N. Anderson Pres. choir as part of the service.[ Lots of applause and a lot of people drying their eyes.] Leonard was speaking to all the damaged and hurting people out there- incl. myself. Let's try to take care of each other, folks ; if we don't , who will?

    "...O solitude of longing
    Where love has been confined
    Come healing of the body
    Come healing of the mind

    ...And let the heavens hear it

    Come healing of the limb"
