Backstory:

Wrote this song after a Sunday morning service where the Pastor explained that all the sacrifices and offerings mean nothing to the Lord unless he has our hearts.                  

Lyrics:

                                                  
Lord here's my heart
It's old and it's scarred
I know you won't shame me
I know you don't blame me
For the things that I've done
An imperfection human

Lord here's my heart
It's all torn apart
I know you're still near me
I know you still hear me
You know what I've been through
Please take it and make it brand new

I have squandered my birthright
Still I want to see paradise
Salvation is your perfect gift
Fill me up with your light
Show me who I am in your sight
It's solely your prerogative

Lord here's my heart
I've sinned from the start
Through love and through mercy
Of which I'm unworthy
Please show me your love
And all I'm capable of

I have squandered my birthright
Still I want to see paradise
Salvation is your perfect gift
Fill me up with your light
Show me who I am in your sight
It's solely your prerogative

My spirit is crushed my lowly heart broken
My sacrifices are merely a token
I worshipped you the way I was taught
But now I realize how much it was flawed
You want my heart!

I have squandered my birthright
Still I want to see paradise
Salvation is your perfect gift
Fill me up with your light
Show me who I am in your sight
It's solely your prerogative

Lord here's my heart
It's cold and it's hard
Please give me a new one
Please give me a full one
Speak over my life
And make my woeful heart right
