MAKE MY HEART A WORK OF ART
Author(s): Jonathan Harper
Songbook: Compiled LJ Songs
KeyWords: Thankfulness,

If I were an artist
I could share what's on my heart,
Express my deepest feeling
Through an inspired work of art,
I'd sing it in a melody or write it in a poem,
Paint it in a picture, chisel it in stone;
But would this gift only minister to pride,
Would it be better to break me,
Take what's left and then remake me

Chorus:
Make my heart a work of art, Lord,
All the broken pieces, make of me a new man, Jesus,
Make my heart a work of art, Lord,
All the love and beauty will come forth
If You shine through me, Lord

Just like a lump of clay in the Potter's hands,
Mold me and make me into a new man,
And if there's a flaw in me, then break me again,
Cleanse me and set me free from this world of sin

Bridge:
With your Master touch,
The work has just begun,
Though there may be more tomorrow,
Your love has washed away the sorrow

[Repeat Chorus Twice]
