Before it decides to give in
How many times can a soul be mistreated
Before being locked up within
Some days I wish I could make myself cry
And I wonder if maybe this well has run dry
But just when I think my emotions are too numb to feel
That's when You open wide my heart
I can feel You open wide my heart
And I know just the touch of Your hands lets the healing begin
I feel Your river of love rushing in
When You open wide my heart
Each day I stand at the foot of this mountain
And pray for the courage to climb
When I am weary lead me to the fountain
That quenches my thirst every time
Lord, You are the water, my reason to live
When I feel like I have nothing more left to give
Oh, and just when I think I have fallen too far from Your grace
That's when You open wide my heart
I can feel You open wide my heart
And I know just the touch of Your hands lets the healing begin
And I feel Your river of love rushing in
When You open wide my heart, yeah, yeah, yeah
When I fall down
And You lift me up again
Lose my ground
And You bring me back again
Lost and found
I feel alive again
You open wide my heart
I can feel You open wide my heart
And I know just the touch of Your hands lets the healing begin
And I feel Your river of love rushing in
When You open wide
I feel You
Open wide my heart
Yeah, yeah
Each day I stand at the foot of this mountain
And pray for the courage to climb
How many times can a heart be defeated Before it decides to give in How many times can a soul be mistreated Before being locked up within Some days I wish I could make myself cry And I wonder if maybe this well has run dry But just when I think my emotions are too numb to feel That's when You open wide my heart I can feel You open wide my heart And I know just the touch of Your hands lets the healing begin I feel Your river of love rushing in When You open wide my heart Each day I stand at the foot of this mountain And pray for the courage to climb When I am weary lead me to the fountain That quenches my thirst every time Lord, You are the water, my reason to live When I feel like I have nothing more left to give Oh, and just when I think I have fallen too far from Your grace That's when You open wide my heart I can feel You open wide my heart And I know just the touch of Your hands lets the healing begin And I feel Your river of love rushing in When You open wide my heart, yeah, yeah, yeah When I fall down And You lift me up again Lose my ground And You bring me back again Lost and found I feel alive again You open wide my heart I can feel You open wide my heart And I know just the touch of Your hands lets the healing begin And I feel Your river of love rushing in When You open wide I feel You Open wide my heart Yeah, yeah Each day I stand at the foot of this mountain And pray for the courage to climb Explain Request ×
