The Guard Of My Heart

My emotions always seem to be running away,
It appears the guards of my heart are taking a personal day.
Oh look at me trying to pass the blame,
It is totally me I fail to tame.
My apathy leads to my broken heart,
And ends with me asking for a restart.
The truth I missed once again,
Blinded and deceived by my sin!
Thankfully my heart does not belong to me,
Only one name on it you will see!
That writing on my heart came with a price,
Forgiving me of all my vice!
How pathetic our response is at times,
Settling to be like silent mimes.
So much truth we have to bring!
So much about we have to sing!
But we settle for the things here,
And remain obedient to fear.
I say “No More!”
It is time that apathy is shown the door!
We must go and proclaim,
King Jesus’ great name.
Yeah, suffering and pain we may meet,
But our destination is at Jesus feet!
Run on Christian, don’t quit the race!
Run the fastest, and most determined pace!
Remember we died at the cross,
Any gain we had is now loss.
It is Christ that lives on,
He is bringing about a new dawn!
Our God loves us more then we know,
Perfect love he will always show.
So tell fears and worries goodbye,
And allow yourself to die.
Die to those things that take the joy of life,
And be His bride, Be His wife!
He has placed His truth all around,
So let Him tune your heart to this beautiful sound!
The sound of perfect love and abundant grace,
Look for the guard of my heart and you will see Jesus face!
