My Heart Closed – v2

Something about this world
my heart closed
walled off from my faith
not wanting to believe
to change from my path

Lost in the fog of this world
on a path of my own creation
never really opening your Book
never reading your words of love
Your calling for my life

And You opened the door for me
a new path before me
to a world of grace, of hope
fulfilled, joy revealed,
Your words coming alive

Leaving my past behind
turning to You to guide me
on the path You had planned all along
finding new life in Your words
knowing they are true

Hearing the echoes of those days
when I first came from the fog
when I broke into Your sunlight
entering into Your grace, oh Lord
heeding Your heavenly call
