I could sing it loud, I could whisper low
You're my beating heart, You're my living soul
My one true love, Lord, You'll never turn Your back to me
Sinking like an anvil through the ocean depths
When I have no peace, when I have no rest
Please give me life, Lord
Show me grace, Lord
Your love has no flaws but I pray
You keep me at Your hip like a child
Love me like a bride
And hold me close
My heart's been destroyed
Take Your strings and make me whole
Mend me, Love, as my flesh and blood go cold
All busted up, my body rusts, pinioned in these wretched cuffs
I pray Lord save me, I'm not worthy
But all my life I've been so lonely
Keep my vagabond feet on Your road
I could be so bitter
But that ain't the truth I'm walking toward
No, that ain't the truth I'm walking toward
How could You die for us?
Your only child for us?
Mercy, gentle Love, my heart can't take much more
How could You live for us?
Your endless love for us?
My soul adores, adores, adores You so
I'd die for, die for, die for you, Lord
A thousand times again, again, and more
Just to set a hand upon your robes
My heart's been destroyed
Take Your strings and make me whole
Mend me, Love, as my flesh and blood go cold
Mend me, mend me, mend me, Lord, oh mend me
Mend me, mend me, mend me, mend me, Lord, oh mend me
Mend me, mend me, mend me, Lord, oh mend me
