Battle Hymn of My Heart

Dear Lord, I know we've been a mess

You gave us hearts, Lord, and they're filled up with stress

We know you're the answer, That's why I'm writing to you

You show us all the colors, when we're only seeing blue

Forgive us for our shortcomings

Forgive us for our pride

Forgive us for feeling broken

Forgive everything inside

Remind us that you're waiting for us to close our eyes

Be in your presence, and that it's okay to cry.

We don't have to be Atlas, cause you'll carry our world

Don't let us be strangers why the answers all unfurl.

Forgive us for our weakness

Forgive us for holding it in

Forgive us for our struggles

Forgive us for our sins

I know I've been pushing when you've drawn me near

I've tried to walk without you, but I can't get past my fears

I can't push forward without you holding my hand.

You keep me moving when I'm sinking in quicksand

Thank you for understanding

Thank you for taking me in

Thank you for loving me

Thank you, Lord, Amen

Oh oh

Amen.
