Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I seek your face as my heart bows down, down, down, down
Take a look of what's inside
It's in me, your hope resides
When I look at my own life, won't forget you paid my price
I'm in the silence, my whispers loud and clear
And if you start crying, my mercies here for you
Just seek my face and I'll show you how my heart beats for you
It's in me, your love resides
I hold you close to my heart
When I look at my own life, won't forget you paid my price
I hold you close to my heart
Take a look of what's inside
It's in me, your love resides
I hold you close to my heart
When I look at my own life, won't forget you paid my price
I hold you close to my heart
Christ in me, your glory shines
Makes beauty from loveless sights
I hold you close to my heart
When I look at my own life, remembered you paid my price
I hold you close to my heart
When I made that sacrifice, I had you on my mind
