| 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, oh, to do, oh
|
| 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)
|
| Help me open my heart to You
|
| (Help me open my heart to You)
|
| 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, oh, to do, oh
|
| Help me open my heart to You
|
| (Help me open my heart to You)
|
| Help me open my heart to You
|
| (Help me open my heart to You)
|
| Help me open my heart to You, sweet Jesus, I
|
| (Help me open my heart to You)
|
| I want to open my heart to You
|
| (Help me open my heart to You)
|
| I want to open my heart to You
|
| (Help me open my heart to You)
|
| I want to open my heart to You, oh Jesus
|
| It’s what I long to do, oh, to do, oh, to do, oh, to do, oh |
