Written as I was dealing with trying to hide what was going on in my life.
I didn’t know it then when things were falling apart that it could hurt more than now
I didn’t know when the pain would subside and the hurts would go away
I didn’t mean for it to hurt more, if I kept things bottled up deep inside
I didn’t understand the only way to heal was to let God have my pain
If I would have known that things were going to hurt so much
If I would have known that my heart couldn’t heal without surrender
If I would have known that the pain in my life would bring me closer to my Savior
If I would have remembered that my Jesus was waiting for me to come to Him
We all don’t want to hurt more, to do something with the least amount of pain
We have all been hurt by the ones we loved, but have you ever had to let them go
I don’t want to hurt anymore, for the things that try to scare me from my past
I don’t want the things that I once remembered to come back and haunt me
If I hurt more now, could I remember that healing would take time
If I hurt more now, could I surrender my pain for the promise of new life
If I hurt more now, could I try to lay my pain at the foot of the cross
If I hurt more now, could I be honest with others and myself, my healing will come
