My life

Oh sun that rules this sacred sky

Oh moon and stars in the heavens high

Warn her of this heart of mine

The heart that’s filed with twisting vines

And lies to cover up from here on in

The dirty, wrenched, stains of sin

That I put on this heart of mine

Yes, I, a spiteful, wretched swine

~

Now Jesus has purged this heart of mine,

The heart that belonged once to this slothful swine

Yes, upon the cross, he painfully died

With nails through his feet, and whip marks on his side

He sent me a spirit, deep within

Now I call out to him, now I, his kin

~

Now I must go around the earth

And tell every one of my new found birth
