Sixpence None The Richer - Brighten My Heart

My heart is as dark as the soil sodden with winter rains
My soul is as heavy as the peat freshly dug from the bog
My thoughts were like willow branches caught in the autumn winds
My body is as tense as a cat as it stalks its prey

[Chorus]
Help me open my heart to you
help me open my heart to you
help me open my heart to you...
Oh Jesus its what I long to do

My heart is as dark as the soil sodden with winter rains
(Lord open my heart)
My soul is as heavy as the peat freshly dug from the bog
(Lord lighten my soul)
My thoughts were like willow branches caught in the autumn winds
(Lord steal my thoughts)
My body is as tense as a cat as it stalks its prey
(Lord relax my body..... )
[repeat chorus]

[Interlude]

[repeat chorus twice]
I want to open my heart oh Jesus, its what I want to do...
to do...
