Why since you’ve wounded my heart
Don’t You heal it?
Why don’t You heal?
And why since you’ve stolen my heart,
Do you leave it so?
Oh this heart of stone.

Why don’t you carry away my heart
You have stolen and left here broken
Why don’t you carry away my heart
Already taken

Awaken the dawning of a new heart
Where stone begins to bleed
For the arrow of God that runs through me
Leaves me in need
Here in need

Awaken

How long? How long? How long?




Behind the Song:
"An old saint nicknamed “Saint John of the Cross” helped me with this prayer I have for God to mend and heal and complete the work He has done in me. He has captured me with His love. He has wounded me, and though He is my delight, I am flailing around in despair until I see Him." - Shane Barnard
