Circumcise Our Hearts

Verse 1

Our Father in heaven, holy is Your Name,

Your kingdom come, Your will remain the same.

You know us fully, deeper than our sight,

Teach us to trust You, walk not by our might.

Be our only hope, our strength and our song,

Not in our wisdom do our hearts belong.

Chorus

Circumcise our hearts, O Lord of grace,

Break us and heal us in mercy’s place.

Create in us hearts like children pure,

Free from revenge, forever secure.

Verse 2

We repent in ashes, broken and low,

Forgive our failures, the vows we didn’t show.

Teach us to love You with all that we are,

Heart, soul, mind, strength—near or far.

Let us not rejoice when our foes fall down,

But pray they repent and righteousness crown.

Chorus

Circumcise our hearts, O Lord of light,

Replace our dark desires with what is right.

Teach us to forgive as we are forgiven,

Living Your commands, tasting heaven.

Bridge

Like Jacob, we wait for reward from You alone,

Though strength feels wasted and seeds seem sown in stone.

Our neighbor is anyone in need we see,

Friend or enemy—teach us mercy.

Verse 3

Give us our bread, Your life-giving Word,

To love it, remember it, live what we’ve heard.

Guard us from evil, from pride and fear,

Make our thoughts and words pleasing, clear.

Final Chorus

Circumcise our hearts, our Rock, our Redeemer,

Make us humble, peace-seeking believers.

All that we have is Your gracious love,

Heal our past wounds—lead us above.

Amen.
