Open Heart Sugery

Jumbled up inside me
a heart of twisted
emotion.
Watch as it slowly
seeps out
raw.
Tangled and twisted
confused and excited
at times it's broken
and bleeding.
Your words have captured my heart
speaking of life, love
and God.
Pass by my ears
passion pumps into my chest
lingering, igniting a flame.
Ancient scars and still-fresh wounds
seared by the love
of a Father.
I will open my hands
releasing my incompetent tools
and rest assured
placing my life in His
more than capable hands.
His tender touch renews me
closeness breathing life.
Fill my lungs with praises
and let them burst from my lips.
Let Your blood flow
over and through me
with Your hand around
my heart.
Now we're standing together
engulfed in Your presence
hearts beating
as One.
