Guarded Heart
Guarded Heart
I now guard my heart..
With walls of stone..
Built slowly..one at a time.
I watched my life crumble..
Before my very eyes..
I gave you my love..
You tossed it aside.
You crushed our love..
As if it ..were never to exist.
Why did you do this?
Fate's terrible twist.
The place in my heart you once held..
I try so hard to find..
Feels so dark and cold..
Once so safe and warm..
I wonder..
What will be left behind?
God's plan for us..
So hard to see..
For yesterday is gone..
Tomorrow ..yet to be.
Please.. walk with me Jesus..
Shine your light brightly..
For without it..I cannot see.
Surround me with your love..
For without it ..I cease to be.
Inside my heart..
Your love held one precious part..
My Jesus holds the other..
The peaceful difference is..
God's love will never part..
His love..
Forever guards my heart.
