Save My Heart By Kenny Davis

Save My Heart by Kenny Davis My Lord, my father Please save my heart From the cruelties of this world And its people from tearing it apart My heart bitter and frozen From the mere absence of warm blood This substance remains stained Sin has made it filthier than mud Without your blood of life Lord, why haven’t I fainted? This world has made my heart cold My dirty soul remains tainted My heart lies in utter hatred Its love for this world lies dormant Due to the world’s twisted cruelty Its torture and endless torment The death of my heart Due to wearing it on my sleeve Lord, save my soul from the agony Of being utterly bereaved What could have possibly happened To turn my warm heart to stone To make it feel that it better off Embracing its own To have an insatiable urge to live alone Loving the warmth of the icicles stretched along my bones Shielding from the world, the heart that it’s never known When the world banished it to the abyss that it proudly calls home You see, my lord My heart needs your help For without you it is lost Without you, there is no one else © June 2011 k.davis
