The Window of the Heart

We may grow weary and faint of heart

We may want to quit before we start

For trouble haunts us and weighs us down

Burdens leave us broken and bound.

We have a weapon to wield and raise

The power to direct our gaze

A gift of choice that we can use

To choose to change our point of views

We set our minds on higher things

We wield this weapon and spread our wings

Our minds are set on things above

Pursuing peace and joy and love.

The mind`s the window of the heart.

Don`t let our thoughts dwell on the dark,

Open the window Lord, set our sights

To seek the Son and see the light.

Beyond the roots of brokenness

There is real truth we can confess

And if we set our hearts aright

We`ll overcome and fight the fight.

Fling wide the window of the Heart

Lord as we consider You, You`ll start

To transform minds that will pursue

The good the beautiful, the true.

Bridge
Whatsoever things are true, whatever things are honest,
Whatsoever things are just, that purity conveys,
Whatsoever things are lovely, or things of good report,
If there be any excellent ways, or anything worthy of praise,
Think on these things for all of your days!

So take the gift from off the shelf

Re-think, repent and rend your self

Reflecting on the better part

Open the window of the heart.
Open the window of the heart.
Open the window of the heart.
