287 The Heart's Voice of a Created Being
Verse 1 So often I wanted to cry out, but no place ever felt right. So often I wanted to sing aloud, but nary a tune I could find. So often I yearned to express the love of a created being. I searched high and I searched low, but all the words seemed to have failed me. Almighty God, You are the love in my heart. The heart's voice of a created being. Verse 2 Man came out of the dust, from the dust without life. You made man and gave us breath, You gave us the breath of life. How sad that Satan has corrupted us, lost are our reason and conscience. Generation after generation, and many more after have fallen ever since. Almighty God, You are the love in my heart. The heart's voice of a created being. Bridge My heart leaps, my hands rejoice to praise Your coming to earth. Corrupt was I, yet You saved me. And now I see Your glorious face. Obeying Your plans, satisfying Your will, myself I will no longer choose. I come from dust; to love You is a great blessing. How can I not bow and worship You? Verse 3 You created and love man. You became flesh again to save us. You have endured all kinds of humiliation, You have endured persecution, You have tasted all the sweetness and bitterness of life, so man can be brought to a beautiful destination. How can we not thank You endlessly for such a great salvation? Almighty God, You are the love in my heart. The heart's voice of a created being. Verse 4 Today I am saved and pursue the human life only by Your exaltation and Your grace. I enjoy Your words and accept Your judgment. I come to know Your righteousness and holiness. Enduring all kinds of persecution and pain, I realize that You are the loveliest. Because Your work is what I am going through, I live in the light, being cleansed. Almighty God, You are the love in my heart. The heart's voice of a created being. Outro It's the creature's bound duty to worship God, it's the creature's bound duty to worship You. I hate Satan with all of my heart. It uses any means to lure me. I'd rather love You in all Your judgement, I'd rather love You in all Your chastisement, no longer lusting for fleshly comforts, no longer living under Satan. Almighty God, You are the love in my heart. The heart's voice of a created being.
