God's Heart
God used His heart for a pattern for mine,
It was made in His image, and was a sign
That He loved me...me!...Me! unconditionally,
I in return, turned my back completely.
If my heart is made in the image of God,
What right do I have to stomp on it or trod.
Oh I am so sorry, you see
I never thought about You loving me.
If my heart is Your's God, what right did I have
to fill it with sin after all you gave.
My heart hasn't always been pure and clean
Sometimes it was full of hate it seemed.
My God, cleanse me, make me whole once again
Rid me of troubles from my past sins.
And fill my heart Lord, with things that will last.
A lasting love for You will endure the test.
Together we'll keep my heart clean and pure.
Together the trials and tribulations to endure.
A pure heart was what you gave me
and a pure heart I'll give back to Thee.
Today Lord, my heart was set free
Help me keep it pure and clean for Thee.
