Transform My Grumbling Heart
I sing of having gratitude,
But then, what is my attitude?
I murmur and complain
For not receiving rain;
Oh LORD, transform my grumbling heart!
I write of having thankfulness,
But then, I drown in anxiousness,
I lament, whine and mourn
And make my life forlorn;
Oh LORD, transform my grumbling heart!
I pen of having gratefulness,
But then, am filled with hatefulness,
I whimper, moan and groan
'bout problems still unknown;
Oh LORD, transform my grumbling heart!
I teach of having thanksgiving,
But then, how am I still living?
I mutter, cry and grunt
When troubles come upfront;
Oh LORD, transform my grumbling heart!
