This week, I wanted you to have before you the words of this particular song, “Jacob’s Song” … Sometime ago, Debbie, an ETBU (East Texas Baptist University) student wrote these words for Jacob and his battle with TBI — a life-long fight that was set into motion during a drowning accident…
Jacob’s Song
Sometimes there’s just no way to explain it all; And we question: Lord, why is this the path that I must walk? Though the shadows fall across our way, We must know that there’s a better day…
He’s the healer. He’s the keeper, He’s the One who makes it all. And when you get to the end of your rope, Just let go and fall, For His arms will catch it all.
Remember a special time of peace from days ago, Now imagine a greater peace than you have ever known. This peace awaits your soul; We only must let go…
He’s the healer, He’s the keeper. He’s the One who makes it all. And when you get to the end of your rope, Just let go and fall, For His arms will catch it all.
Still yet we hope and pray and we watch for signs; But we know in our own hearts is where the healing lies. There is more God wants to say; That is why He remolds the clay…
He’s the healer, He’s the keeper, He’s the One who who makes it all. And when you get to the end of your rope, Just let go and fall, For His arms will catch it all.
He’s my healer. He’s my keeper, He’s the One who makes it all. And when I get to the end of my rope, I’ll let go and fall, For His arms will catch it all, For His arms will catch us all.

Hi Patti, thanks for sharing the lyrics to Jacob’s Song. It’s good to see that the words are still out there and hopefully helping others in despair.
Keep up the good work!
