Your spirit reads my heart

Somehow You see each fragile part before You look
You know my every weakness

That’s when I need You most
When I seem to push away
That’s when I need You close
When my flesh would hide my heart
From the only truth it knows

Only You will keep my heart secure
Your tender love for me remains so strong and Sure
And though I may fail You often
Still Your healing mercies flow
For with a father’s wisdom
You always know, that…

REPEAT CHORUS
