A Journey Through The Heart (re visited)
Who sits on the throne of my heart
LORD, all along I've said it was you,
Then one day I decided to search and
See, If that were really true
As I quietly opened
That long forgotten door,
I was bewildered to see,
It wasn't you anymore
I felt as if my heart
Would break,
When I seen all the things,
That had taken your place
Humility had been stolen by ungodly
Pride, peace was gone,
And in it's place
Stood arrogance and strife
I looked for goodness and
Found selfishness had invaded
It's space, I began to tremble,
Tears fell down my face
I cried out to joy,
To bring me some gladness,
Just to find it had been buried,
Beneath a mountain of sadness
Love "oh" love,
Surely your still there,
But the place where it had lived,
Was now empty and bare
Oh grace, how could this happen?
I was so unaware,
I'm but a white washed sepulcher,
Standing here.
