My heart is an open book to God,
He can see my faithfulness
And, where I have strayed from truth,
Each day I seek God’s desire for me,
So I can know what is good and true,
I see His faithfulness returned to me,
Over and over as each moment unfolds,
I know what love looks like,
When I see God’s hand in everything.
Love brings with it responsibility,
Longing to be faithful to God’s beauty,
Wholehearted love that given unselfishly,
Delighting in new discoveries every day,
Learning your love words spoken to me,
So that I can repeat them back to you,
Purity is what I have found,
In each expression of love,
That is remembered from each day.
I know the pain of forgetting about love,
It took me to my deepest sadness,
Where love was rejected for destruction,
Caught in a web of lies that sought my death,
Obedience brought me back to life,
Revived to begin living once more,
Joy discovered in trusting God,
Laugher was found in love’s embrace,
Selfish desire replaced by Grace’s giving.
