Heart of Stone
Lord break my bonds and set me free
Within your will and not my own
Is where I desperately, fervently want to be
Lord wonít you melt my heart of stone?
Lord, take away depraved desires
Until I desire you alone.
Burn my dross till it is lost here within your
holy fire
Lord wonít you melt this heart of stone?
Bruise me deeply if you must in places yet
unknown
Until pain purifies my trust. Lord melt this
heart of stone.
The hardest heart your holy hammer breaks
What ever is needed whatever it takes
Those you love you will chastise
This is truth on which my heart relies.
Lord, turn this harness by your love
Change this self righteousness and pride
Into a compassion from above
Until this hardened heart is crucified
Bruise me deeply if you must in places yet
unknown
Until pain purifies my trust. Lord melt this
heart of stone.
The hardest heart your holy hammer breaks
What ever is needed whatever it takes
Those you love you will chastise
This is truth on which my heart relies.
