Fix My Heart
[Chorus: Denise Powell]
Lord fix my eyes to You, I only see You
Lord fix my heart to You, I only want You
Lord fix my eyes to You, I only see You
Lord fix my heart to You, I only want You
[Verse 1: Swoope]
Yeah, uh
I’m finding that my best ain’t good enough
So I try to be better than I ever been
But the elephant in the room is
My best attempt at being adequate is arrogance
I didn’t seek God 'cause the heart in me
Honestly thought that I can handle this
I didn’t read the signs of the marquee that a heart this dark can
Never handle being narcissistic, heart sadistic
Thoughts and wishes that deserve torture in this dark and wicked
And perverse hearts of men that walk as princes fight against Your awesome Spirit Lord
Battle for my soul and I’m losing it, grabbin’ for control and I’m losing it
Everything about me broke so my heart I need You to fix
[Chorus: Denise Powell]
Lord fix my eyes to You, I only see You
Lord fix my heart to You, I only want You
Lord fix my eyes to You, I only see You
Lord fix my heart to You, I only want You
[Verse 2: Swoope]
Yeah
Lord, I’m desperate, I’m hopeless, I’m helpless, my heart so sick
And hell is my prognosis, Ima fail this if God don’t fix
I’m depending on You my God, I know my sin nature would oppose this
Ima stay drownin’ with no lifeguard, sin anchor tryna takin' down a whole ship
Jesus, I’m leanin’ on no other name, stay grindin’ even though I suffer pain
Ima win some, Ima lose some, but Ima live to fight another day
Life ain’t got no pretty bow I know that I’mma fall down
Ain’t that what McClurkin said, but I ain’t a saint through my own power
Just a sinner who dun found his worth up in the perfect Lamb
Because He lives though I can face tomorrow only those God has set free can repeat
The heart within and death has been swallowed, Holy Ghost got that flesh eating disease
Mya Desiree or my desires won’t retire but I know that I can win the war
My assurance is in the resurrection of Jesus, I fight sin daily knowing that He already beat it
[Chorus: Denise Powell]
Lord fix my eyes to You, I only see You
Lord fix my heart to You, I only want You
[Verse 3: Propaganda]
Yeah, yeah
And I be finding further frustrations in the fact my flesh problems
Aren’t fixed in 20 minutes or less, yes
So far from sitcoms where mom is so silly and dad is so stupid
And every major life lesson ends with hugs and laugh tracks
Precocious little sisters hit you with a zinger, no
No “Zack and Cody” “Hey Jessie” “Good Luck Charlie”
Sometimes Corey don’t get Topanga
And this ”boy met the world” and loved it a little too much
I was “breaking bad” but my “theories big bangin” with “mad men”
And when the season ends and my “house of cards” came crashin’
And all the desires of my heart led to “the walking dead” dang
This really ain’t a sprint is it, some of us get “lost” and come crashing on jagged shores
No neat little bow to tie them problems up right
And every day we pitch our tent one day closer to eternity
So when the storms of life are aimless drifting and hopeless oceans
The anchor of our soul is the same light at the shore
My peace in the troubled sea and I found my true North
The reason for all songs that light beam that pierces the fiercest of London fog
Fix my heart to You, so when tomorrow come callin’
There will be an all out display of faith in Son of God
I know this life ain’t a movie, it’s life
[Chorus: Denise Powell]
Lord fix my eyes to You, I only see You
Lord fix my heart to You, I only want You
