4. Sixpence None The Richer: Brighten My Heart

my heart is as dark as the soil sodden with winter rains
my soul is as heavy as the peat freshly dug from the bog
my thoughts swirl like willow branches caught in autumn winds
my body as tense as a cat's as it stalks its prey

Chorus
help me open my heart to You,
help me open my heart to You,
help me open my heart to You, oh Jesus
it's what I long to do

my heart is as dark as the soil sodden with winter rains
(Lord, brighten my heart)
my soul is as heavy as the peat freshly dug from the bog
(Lord, lighten my soul)
my thoughts swirl like willow branches caught in autumn winds
(Lord, still my thoughts)
my body as tense as a cat's as it stalks its prey
(Lord relax my body)
