I wish for once my heart and mind
Would finally coincide
It seems that in this life of mine
They hardly can abide!
First one is off, wandering free
In the throws of romance and love
The other stalwart as can be
Focused on heavenly realms above
My mind is irked by my fervor
My heart annoyed by restrain
Yet both are in this together
Through fire or starry-crossed main
LORD, why did you give us emotion?
Father, why not just give us all brains?
Is it better to have loved at all and lost it?
I can't imagine it any other way.
Here I now stand - broken
Suddenly I feel so very cold.
Yet LORD, I know you have a purpose
And that alone makes me bold.
So Father, whatever your plan is
No matter the trials to come
I trust that my heart in your hand is
Till you lead this child safely Home.
