Heart Instead

You can go to church every Sunday
You can know the rules, serve the homeless
You can go to camp and to retreats
But do you know Me

You can sing a song from the back pew
You can share a sermon from a stage or two
You can cast out demons, heal disease
But do you know Me

These hands were pierced for you, my child.
For you my own heart beats
I laid My life down on the cross
For you to know my heart
Do you know My heart

My love is simple and it's pure
I give it freely, it is yours
And I don't need your work or promises
I want your heart instead

These hands were pierced for you, my child.
For you my own heart beats
I laid My life down on the cross
For you to know my heart
Do you know My heart

Darling, I knew your name
I knew the number of your days
Child, I knew your face
Even before you were made
Darling, I knew your name
I knew the number of your days
Child, I knew your face
Even before you were made

Oh, these hands were pierced for you, my child
For you my own heart beats
I laid My life down on the cross
For you to know my heart
Do you know My heart?
I want your heart
You have my whole heart
