Jeoffrey was already involved in the Christian music business since the 70s when his son expressed interest in following in his footsteps; their eponymous debut album was released in 1995. Their goal was to show a positive model of the father/son relationship. After their last album release in 1999, the duo disbanded to follow individual careers: Jeoffrey released a self-titled album in 2000 and Aaron is currently a member of the band Dirt Road Hotel.
Heal Me
Aaron Jeoffrey Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Though I hardly hear the words roll off my tongue
Looking in myself for signs of something that's long gone
Though I stumble through the verse that says You love me
As the voices echo my thoughts drift away
And I close my eyes ashamed I'm feeling nothing
And I pray, I pray
Breathe Your breath of life
Heal me, wake my soul from this sleep
Give me back the joy of when I first believed
Heal me
I lose myself to one more day's indifference
When my eyes are everywhere but fixed on You
I don't have the strength to overcome this distance
But You do, You do
Heal me, heal these eyes, heal this heart, heal my mind
Breathe Your breath of life
Heal me, wake my soul from this sleep
Give me back the joy of when I first believed
Heal me
Heal me
I don't want to waste another minute taking all Your love for granted
I just want to feel Your Holy Spirit rushing over me
Heal me, heal these eyes, heal this heart, heal my mind
Breathe Your breath of life
Heal me, wake my soul from this sleep
Give me back the joy of when I first believed
Heal me
Heal me
The lyrics of Aaron Jeoffrey's song "Heal Me" are a heartfelt plea for spiritual healing and renewal. The song is set in a Sunday morning church service, where the singer hears the familiar greeting of "Good to see you" but feels distant and disconnected from the words. Even as they stumble through singing about God's love, the singer's thoughts drift away, and they feel ashamed of feeling nothing.
The singer acknowledges their own weakness and inability to overcome their spiritual distance, but they turn to God and ask for His healing power. They want God to wake their soul from its "sleep" and restore the joy they felt when they first believed. The repeated cry of "Heal me" is a desperate plea for God's intervention and a recognition of the power of His healing touch.
Throughout the song, there is a sense of longing and yearning for a deeper connection with God. The singer recognizes that they have taken God's love for granted and wants to feel the Holy Spirit rushing over them once more. Ultimately, the song is a prayer for spiritual renewal and a reminder of the transformative power of God's love and grace.
