Lyrics

Verse 1
Jesus, here I am again begging for forgiveness
for my cold, cold heart and easily distracted mind.
I don’t want to wallow in the cares and stress,
the busyness, of things that keep me blind
to your call of drawing close to you.

Verse 2
These times are so important for me to realize
this season is your Word fulfilled before my very eyes
Each day is an unfolding of the promises you’re keeping,
your church that is sleeping, the selfish hearted weeping,
because we’ve set aside intimacy with you

Chorus
Jesus please forgive me!
Please build in me a priority of intimacy with you
Please break the grip of nonchalance
my hardened heart that always wants
the eyes that only see what’s good in it for me

Bridge
Everything you’ve promised long ago is coming true
Every warning that you’re giving, of how I should be living
as your Bible pages coincide,
with you standing at the door, simply waiting for
the call to get Your holy waiting Bride

Outro
The desire of your heart is my drawing close to you
Everything else means nothing, when all is said and done
All the works I thought were right, fall pale in the night,
If those works got in the way, of intimacy with you

Chorus
Jesus please forgive me!
Please build in me a priority of intimacy with you
Please break the grip of nonchalance
my hardened heart that always wants
the eyes that only see what’s good in it for me

Final Verse
Jesus, here I am again begging for forgiveness
for my cold, cold heart and easily distracted mind.
I don’t want to wallow in the cares and stress,
the busyness, of things that keep me blind
to your call of drawing close to you.
