Lyrics Long and Lonely Hours - Oleta Adams

In the long and lonely hours
As I bear the course of pain
I′ve been waiting for an answer
Now I'm asking you again
To relieve me on my journey
From a load that′s hard to bear
Help me reach my destination
Will you come and take me there
I get flowers and well wishes
With a card or sentiment
Some have written off my future
Cuz my body's so far spent
I hear whispers in the distance
From the ones who care for me
I hear sighs of great frustration
Cuz they don't have what i need
Lord can′t you hear me in my suffering
Prayers of a sorrowful psalm
Father come near me
Help me, love me
Don′t let me anguish too long
I have labored for a lifetime
I have struggled on my own
But I know I'm not an island
I can′t handle this alone
As I bear with my affliction
Father hurry, don't delay
Master, you′re the great physician
Could you please heal me today?
