(Chorus)

Don't let your heart be hardened - don't let your love grow cold

May it always stay so childlike - may it never grow too old

Don't let your heart be hardened - may you always know the cure

Keep it broken before Jesus, keep it thankful, meek, and pure



May it always feel compassion - may it beat as one with God's

May it never be contrary - may it never be at odds

May it always be forgiving - may it never know conceit

May it always be encouraged - may it never know defeat



May your heart be always open - never satisfied with right

May your heat be filled with courage and strengthened with all might



Let His love rain down upon you

Breaking up your fallow ground

Let it lossen all the binding

Till only tenderness is found
