take me there Lyrics

Oh Lord

Take me to the deep places of my heart

Take me to the areas that are dark

Show me the hidden places where there are scars

I've got to go there for me to break free of the grip of dependencies that ride me

I can't reach them with my reason

My will commits treason in justifying their existence

I point the finger at another soul

I curse the face of a familiar shape

Even though we both go to church

Praying the same thing

Shouting Amen when the preacher yells the truth

Like a knife, it cuts through

Convicting me of how much I need you

If I'm to be free

You must take me there

With my hand in yours, I'll be ok

It only brings more pain when I try to arrange things

No change

Only evidence that the dark places of my heart still have scars

That forgiveness still needs to be given

I'm here, Lord Jesus

With a heart that's repentive

I plead with you

Take me there

I will go

I want to be free in my soul

I want to know

How to flow

With you

For your kingdom to come

Through me

For your will to be done by me

I yield my heart

I renew my mind

I'm ready now

I've opened my heart ear

For you, oh God

To take me

There
