Inspired by Mark 1:40-45, this hymn tells of a leper who, rejected by all, kneels in the wilderness, crying out, “Lord, if you are willing, you can make me clean.” Jesus did not back away but reached out his hand and touched him, saying, “I am willing; be clean.” In that moment, the leper was healed, and his life was set free. This hymn sings of that genuine longing and the grace of being accepted. When the world makes us feel unworthy, when wounds are hidden too deep, God is still willing to approach—to heal with love, to touch with His hand, and to let broken spirits beat again.

✨This is not a loudly proclaimed worship, but the quietest prayer from the bottom of one's heart. In God's hands, we are seen, cleansed, and reborn.

🎧 Musical Style: Male worship vocals, dominated by piano and strings, soft and slow tempo, with a quiet and atmospheric feel. 💡 Themes: Being loved and accepted, God's healing, regaining freedom, Your mercy, and renewal of faith.

You Reach Out and Touch Me

Lord, I am unworthy to approach You, my body is full of wounds and pain, the world avoids my gaze, but Your eyes are different. I kneel and beg You to cleanse me anew. You did not back down an inch, but reached out to touch my heart. You touched me, and I was no longer rejected. You saw my lonely tears, and You said, "I do," your voice gentle yet firm. Love has given me a new life, and I no longer fear anyone. I reach out to touch You, and pain no longer torments me. My soul has been cleansed by You. Lord, thank You, see that I am still beautiful. Your love has restored my courage.

I was rejected and hid in the crowd, my wounds hidden for so many years. No one could see my lonely heart; only fear spread in the night. Until You approached and did not back down, Your eyes gentle and understanding. You reached out and touched me; no longer forgotten by the world, Your love flowed into my heart. In that moment, I knew I was forgiven; You bore all my filth. I once doubted whether there would be a tomorrow, tears soaking my faith. But You softly said, "Child, do not be afraid," Your grace descended once more. In Your embrace, weakness turned to strength; Your light gave me hope again. You reached out and touched me; darkness instantly retreated; You healed the wounds in my soul. You said, "I do," your voice full of power, allowing me to stand in the sunlight again. When You looked at me, everything changed. My heartbeat told me that Your love for me truly remains unchanged. I vow never to run away again, to repay Your grace with my life. You reached out and touched me; I received healing and liberation; Your love set me free. Even if the wind rises again, I will still sing, for you have never left my side.
