Songs for Healing Your Heart- Faith
I love songs from movies as they carry an extra meaning. If you saw the movie ‘PS I Love You’ then you’ll recognise this song.
Bittersweet, the film tells a story of a woman who finds true love.
Her husband dies, and she goes deep into her process of grief. In the course of a year receiving messages that her husband planned before he died, she rebuilds her life, and finds love again.
Its a story of true love, friendship, and of a mother’s love. As the mother says, “if we’re alone, then we’re all together in that too.”
Its a 10 handkerchief movie and it is a song for healing your heart.
This song has an ethereal beauty, the lyrics bear witness to a love so profound, everlasting and faithful:-
“In the burning of uncertainty
I will be your solid ground”
and
“When the stars have all burned out,
You’ll still be burning so bright”
Song: ‘Answer’ by Sarah McLachlan

‘Answer’ Lyrics
I will be the answer
At the end of the line
I will be there for you
While you take the time
In the burning of uncertainty
I will be your solid ground
I will hold the balance
If you can’t look down
If it takes my whole life
I won’t break, I won’t bend
It will all be worth it
Worth it in the end
Cause I can only tell you what I know
That I need you in my life
When the stars have all gone out
You’ll still be burning so bright
Cast me gently
Into morning
For the night has been unkind
Take me to a
Place so holy
That I can wash this from my mind
The memory of choosing not to fight
If it takes my whole life
I won’t break, I won’t bend
It will all be worth it
Worth it in the end
‘Cause I can only tell you what I know
That I need you in my life
When the stars have all burned out
You’ll still be burning so bright
Cast me gently
Into morning
For the night has been unkind.
