TEACH MY HEART

By Priscilla Marsceau

~

Dear Lord, give me a song

That lasts into dawn;

Teach my heart to sing in the night.

 

Help me place in Your hands

Broken dreams, shattered plans;

On my knees, may I sing of Your might.

 

Take my heart’s deep despair,

Every burden and care;

Touch my life, let it reflect Your light,

 

So that others may see

I trust only in Thee-

Teach my heart, Lord, to sing in the night.

~

At the end of the day

When I’d lose my way,

Teach my heart to sing in the night.

 

In a prison of pain,

When my strength would wane,

On my knees, may I sing of Your might.

 

When my pride would bring shame

And reproach to Your name,

Touch my life, let it reflect Your light,

 

So that others may see

Only Jesus, not me.

Teach my heart, Lord, to sing in the night.
