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 ould make myself cry
|
and wonder if maybe my well has run dry
|
Just when I think my emotions are too numb to feel
|
|
Chorus:
|
That's when you open wide my heart
|
Just the touch of your hand
|
Let's 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 the mountain
|
And pray for the courage to climb
|
When I am weary lead my to the fountain
|
That quenches my thirst every time
|
|
You are the water, my reason to live
|
When I feel like I have nothing more left to give
|
Just wehn I think I have fallen too far from Your grace
|
|
Repeat Chorus:
|
That's when you open wide my heart
|
Just the touch of your hand
|
Let's the healing begin
|
I feel your river of love rushing in
|
When you open wide my heart
|
|
Bridge:
|
I fall down
|
You lift me up again
|
Lose my ground
|
You bring me back again
|
Lost and found
|
I feel alive again
|
|
CHORUS

Open Wide My Heart
