The Heart

Birds in my Heart

Birds that are caged within my heart

Have many a song to sing

They sing of reunion and being apart

The joy that both may bring

They sing of worlds you cannot see

Unless you go inside

Where the greatest secrets

Often go to hide

Birds never seen on the physical plane

Warble their melodies

In harmony and sweet refrain

Describing all of these

Listen with your inner ear

To every word they say

The day is quickly coming

When they will fly away

The Heart

The heart must turn, long and yearn

For every truth it seeks

It must be open and believe

In order to receive

When the answers come

It must be bold; do what it is told

To see it manifest

Be patient in tests through all the rest

Drawing nigh unto Him

Heart and Soul

The heart that turns to God

Is filled with effulgent light

The heart which belongs to God

Is an instrument of His Might

The soul that turns to God

Is a pre-existent scroll

All may read what is written

Upon that holy soul 

Inspire my Heart

Inspire my heart with rivers of wisdom

My tongue with anthems of praise

Turn fear into calm, let courage emerge

That I may walk in Thy ways

Let me stand before all the world

Saying all I am inspired to say

Without hypocrisy or trepidation

Letting consequences be as they may

The greater error may be silence

Depriving the world of a gift

Let me rely on its discernment

To accept only what will uplift

Inspire my Heart, O my Lord

Inspire my heart, O my Lord

With the songs of the spirit

Blow over me a breeze

From Thy spirit of holiness

That I may sing Thy praise

Warble Thy melodies

And attract the hearts of men

Unto Thee

Longing Heart

My heart no longer longs

For the One Who is near unto me

It longs instead for those lonely souls

Who do not yet know how to see

Oh how I want to open their eyes

Show them where happiness lies

Spread my wings around everyone

Who lies awake and cries

I want to announce to them

In a voice which is loud and clear

The pathway to that grace

Which is astonishingly near

I want to ask them only to turn

Unto Him Who created all

Promising joy and happiness

To any who respond to His call

The Purified Heart

The purified heart contains the divine

The sanctified heart may enter the kingdom

The heart which understands this

Is the heart which is filled with joy, ecstasy and bliss

Refine my Heart

Purify and refine my heart

That it may see

Subtleties and secrets

Concealed within me

The outer perception

The inner conception

The origin an cause

The purpose and goal

All that is hidden 

Within my soul  

Your Heart

Don’t give your heart to me

Recognize what you see

A reflection of One who loves you

Ever will be true

Give your heart to He

Who caused your heart to be
