lyrics

When the throne of grace seems so far away
When all I see is yesterday
When I've forgotten how to pray
Create in me a song of faith

When my cold heart has turned to stone
When fear and doubt are all I know
When all my scars become unsung
My body aches for you alone

Here's my heart Lord I don't want it
Here's my life Lord can you use it
By your blood there's healing now
By your blood there's no guilt now
There's no guilt now

When I am haunted by the future
And I've got nowhere to go
When all my friends have cursed my name
Come and be this orphans home

Here's my heart Lord I don't want it
Here's my life Lord can you use it
By your blood there's healing now
By your blood there's no guilt now
There's no guilt now

I know you are my Father
You've called me your kid
Fought and laughed with you for hours
You are my closest friend
Now I want to see you as a lover
Feel your heartbeat once again
Lie down with you in flowers
Come and burn me with a kiss

Worship is an amazing gift that God has given his church to respond to the overwhelming sense of awe and adoration we get when he truly reveals himself to us ... more
