Hearts
From the hearts of My faithful come joy, peace and praise
Focused lives know who they are and have a love that stays
Their hearts are full of love that must be given away
To others who need relief from their past and a future that says
Love has changed their hearts and set them free to live
All that they have with open hearts they will be willing to give
The joy, peace, happiness that fill their hearts to those who need
All the new freedoms they have acquired blossomed from loving seed
Given to them by others and taken to their hearts without fear
Set free the love that your hearts contain and give the Holy Spirit a cheer
As the source of human life the heart’s job is to sustain your life
It pushes out the blood of life to nourish your soul to overcome strife
Keep your focus on Me and I will forever fill your hearts with every good thing
Love will blossom and flourish like the beautiful flowers of spring
All good comes from the hearts that are open and free to speak My name
Walk boldly in your testimony and your life will never be the same
