Lyrics
Verse 1
I got a story to tell about some things that I've been through
But I'm healed, oh I'm healed
Verse 2
Had some ups and some downs
Almost level to the ground
But I'm healed, oh I'm healed
Verse 3
Had to wrestle all night long
Had me wondering what went wrong
But I'm healed, oh I'm healed
Verse 4
Had some sunshine and some rain
Heartache and some pain
I'm healed, oh I'm healed
Chorus
My God has touched me, delivered
He set my soul free
My heart is mended, I'm whole again
No chains are holding me
Got my liberty
I am healed, I am healed, I'm healed today
Chorus
God has touched me, delivered
He set my soul free
My heart is mended, I'm whole again
No chains are holding me
Got my liberty
I am healed, I am healed, I'm healed today
Vamp (x2)
I may have some scars, I am healed
Circumstances, I'm still healed
Disappointments, I am healed
Bridge (x2)
Oh, oh, oh, I am healed
I am healed, I am healed
With His stripes I am healed

Meaning & Inspiration
Healed presents recovery as a testimony shaped by hardship rather than an absence of hardship. The verses name changing circumstances, long struggles, heartache, pain, and disappointment before repeatedly returning to the declaration of healing. That contrast gives the song its central movement: suffering is acknowledged plainly, but it does not have the final word.
The chorus broadens healing beyond physical relief. Divine touch is connected with deliverance, freedom, a mended heart, and release from chains, portraying restoration as spiritual and emotional wholeness. The line about being healed through his stripes directly echoes Isaiah 53:5, while the language of liberty aligns with the freedom described in John 8:36. Repetition in the vamp and bridge turns the testimony into a communal gospel affirmation, allowing the central confession to remain clear even as circumstances and disappointments are named.
