Trender Reed

The years leave their marks
Like wounds on the heart
An aching where once there was none
The bitter winds blow
So where does one go
To heal when the damage is done

CHORUS:
Oh tender reed
Although you're so fragile
Tender reed
Although you've been bruised
The gentle hand that grew you from a seed
Will be all the strength that you need

I know that it seems
You're feeling more grief
Before the last heartache could mend
But one thing is sure
God knows you'll endure
He won't let you break, only bend

CHORUS

So hold fast
Even if it takes awhile
God the Father
Will not forsake His child
