Lyrics
The Longing Of My Heart
Verse
There?s a longing in my heart
There?s a hunger in my soul
Only love can fill the part
In the place that makes me whole
Chorus
Before the hardships & in between the pain
When the storm has blown over
And just before the rain
There?s a place, of rest assured
Of comfort, calm & strength, before the race
Where everything is fine
A space where all my hope can shine
Where cares depart
The longing of my heart
Verse
When doubt consumes my thoughts
& troubles cloud the day
I only have myself to blame
When I start to slip away
This struggle tears my world apart
I need to stop this fight
The simple answer is so clear
Just turn & face the light
Chorus
(Same)
Bridge
I Love... To spend my time there
I Hope... You?ll answer my prayer
To Stay... Where darkness dies to
Mighty Light!
Chorus
(Same)
