Captivate my heart, dear Jesus
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Won't You open my eyes to see You?
Won't You open my ears to hear You?
Where are You?
My heart is tired.
I tried hard, really I did, to open my mouth to talk about You.
But it is hard when people make me feel stupid and ashamed of You.
Why am I being suppressed from who I really am?
I would never trade You for acceptance or cool music.
I would never trade You for anything in the world.
But where are You?
How long will transition last?
I seek the warmth of Your embrace.
I need to abandon myself to You.
I don't want to hear their opinions, I just want to hear Yours.
When before You, all my masks and defenses are gone,
Where it's just me. The me You created.
Please don't tell me You are disappointed in me,
Please tell me...
I don't know what You should say.
Just say anything.
I want to hear Your Voice.
The dreams You have given me seem so far away.
Grabbing a soul from the devil seems hard.
But no, I will never let the devil keep me down.
I will remember the days where You have shown me
Your presence, Your love, Your blessings, Your promises, Your dreams.
I will sing of Your love and YOur justice.
To You, O Lord, I will sing praise.
You will fight for me.
For it's not by might nor by power that the Lord saves, but by His Spirit.
You, Daddy, are more than a crutch to me,
You, Daddy, are everything I need, all I know.
Still my heart,
My face is bowed to the ground,
Won't You lift me up?
Won't You come?
