From the recording The Gospel of Romance Project
Lyrics
Here I am, in your presence
With a broken spirit and a broken heart
There’s beauty all around
Yet my countenance is down
And I’m heavy, oh so heavy.
You ask me why and I don’t answer
You tell me to praise, but I stay silent
You tell me to rejoice
But I disobey your voice
Ch:
Lord I want to praise you
But please heal my broken heart
Lord I want to rejoice
But please take these burdens away
Lord I know you’re able
And I’m so incapable
So I’ll trust you to heal my broken heart.
Lord I know, that I’ve failed you
But you still love me
Never leave me
But still I hide from your face
And stay here in my disgrace
And I’m broken, oh so broken
You ask me why and I don’t answer
You tell me to praise, but I stay silent
You tell me to rejoice
But I disobey your voice
Ch.
