Everything I ever loved I ever treasured Everything I ever used to measure blessing in my life
And how much You loved me
It all fell away
It crumbled slowly
Disallusionment informed me
I had gone out full and came back empty
And I could see through broken dreams
Still I believed
That You took my hands and You emptied them
So You could fill them up with Your presence God
And You took my heart
and You broke it in Your hands
So You could sow it up with Your cords of love
With Your cords of love
This journey started in the darkness
But something keeps my feet upon this road
And oh the dawn soon is coming
The seed of hope is small and feeble
But in Your hands I know that it will grow
Until the birds have a place to nest here
And if I never see what You can see
Still I'll believe
That You took my hands and You emptied them
So You could fill them up with Your presence God
And You took my heart
and You broke it in Your hands
So you could sow it up with Your cords of love
There's a song in my heart
There's a song in my heart now that You are good
There's a song in my heart
There's a song in my heart now that You are good
There's a song in my heart
There's a song in my heart now that you are good
Cause You took my hands and You emptied them
So You could fill them up with Your presence God
And You took my heart
and You broke it in Your hands
So You could sow it up with Your cords of love
with Your cords of love
with Your cords of love
with Your cords of love
with Your cords of love
