Keeper of My Heart

Not long ago, I spoke with a friend on facebook and they requested that I post the lyrics to this song I wrote back in 2003. No matter what difficulty you may be facing, the Lord will see you through and help you to love even when it seems impossible because of your hurt and pain.

"Keeper of my Heart".

Verse:
O Lord I come before you in my selfishness and pride
I can't deny these feelings that are welling up inside.
It's all unfair and undeserved and my heart is wrapped in pain
but I know without forgivness, I have nothing to gain.

So help me Lord,surrender all and give me grace to grow
a new-found faith, hope renewed and trust again restored.

Chorus:
You're the keeper of my heart, the guardian of my dreams
Oh Jesus, you are my everything!
You are the lover of my soul so with everything I know
I'm going to love you, trust you, surrender all I am...
Oh Jesus, here I am.

Bridge:
In the midnight hour I'm facing,I know I'm not alone
when my hopes and dreams have faded
you give me strength to carry on
you're my victory and my song!
So, help me Lord, to give again, to love without reserve
make my life a vessal through which your message can be heard.

Chorus:
You're the keeper of my heart, the guardian of my dreams
Oh Jesus, you are my everything!
You are the lover of my soul
so with everything I know
I want to love you, trust you, surrender all I am
Oh Jesus, here I am...here I am.
