Nothing Less than All of My Heart

Josephine Mary Schmidt

Nothing Less than All of My Heart

God, You are Creator, Author of life
You love Your works and all Your children
But there was hate, with its evil and its lies
You are forever faithful, holiness on high

Keep ourselves in the glory of the Lord
Keep ourselves in wonder and awe
You are amazing, my God
And You deserve nothing less than all of my heart
You heal me, and You free me
From a power, way too strong

Let me live forever grateful
Oh, what joy from death to life
There is nothing than can compare
Yet, how often we try

But You keep on loving me
And You promise for eternity
Can I really see?
All that You have prepared for me

Keep ourselves in the glory of the Lord
Keep ourselves in wonder and awe
You are amazing, my God
And You deserve nothing less than all of my heart
You heal me, and You free me
From a power, way too strong

Keep me pure, eyes on You
All I do, please You
Cast away all my hate
Nothing evil thrill me
