my heart is as dark as the soil sodden with winter rains
|
my soul is as heavy as the peat freshly dug from the bog
|
my thoughts swirl like willow branches caught in autumn winds
|
my body is as tense as a cat's as it stalks its prey
|
|
help me open my heart to You,
|
help me open my heart to You,
|
help me open my heart to You, oh Jesus
|
it's what I long to do
|
|
my heart is as dark as the soil sodden with winter rains
|
(Lord, brighten my heart)
|
my soul is as heavy as the peat freshly dug from the bog
|
(Lord, lighten my soul)
|
my thoughts swirl like willow branches caught in autumn winds
|
(Lord, still my thoughts)
|
my body is as tense as a cat's as it stalks its prey
|
(Lord relax my body)
|
