Reveal to me my hidden heart that I may make it clean for You.
Forgive me for my sin in shadows, for I know not what I do.
Ignorance is no excuse for it hurts You just the same,
Shine Your light inside my soul, illuminate my shame.
Close the gap tween You and me, Your Love I would make mine,
And in my thoughts, words and deeds, others You, would find.
May Your Spirit within me, rule in every way,
Till I find my rest at night and from the break of day.
Receive my humble prayer, sweet Lord, I offer thanks and praise,
I claim the Blood of Your perfect Son to change me from my ways.
And make me more like You, loving, kind and good,
Change my heart to grace and mercy, right now it’s hard as wood.
Give my soul the deepest love for every single soul,
Those who are within and those not in Your fold.
Peace and joy I don’t deserve, I know that this is true,
But I know that I’ll have them, when I am close to you.
Thank You just for hearing me in all these words I pray,
Guide me with Your perfect path as I make my way.
Help me determine what is passing and what will always be,
Give me faith in You, my God, that in the dark I see.
Thanks again for Your Love without measure,
You are the greatest, my most sublime treasure.
You give me hope and You always inspire,
Now please grant this request, my heart’s desire.
Amen
Tertius
You have given him his heart’s desire,
and have not withheld the request of his lips.
Psalm 21:2
A note about “My Heart’s Desire”: When our hearts’ desires are in line with God’s desire for us; life is good! As a matter of fact, it couldn’t be better. No matter what our circumstances are, no matter what our problems or troubles, the Love of God with the accompanying hope, peace and joy that comes with it overrules them all. When we wait patiently we find Psalm 21:2 will be our gift from Him as well.
