Written On My Heart
Plus One Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Thinking how it might have been
If you had never walked into my life
I would have been nothing
Without you where would I be

Every moment used to feel
Like living through a cold and starless night
But everything's changing
Everything is feeling right

[Chorus]
You gave me your love
Lifted me up
Now I'm looking at forever
When I never thought I'd ever see that far
You, you're in my soul
Wherever I go
Now I know right from the start
Your love was
Written on my heart

How could I have been so blind
When you were always here so near to me
And there is no other
Who knows me the way
I feel you do

You were waiting all the time
For me to come around and finally see
The love I was missing
There you were right beside me
Always beside me

[Chorus]

You made it so easy
Your love brought out the best in me and
You are my light and my truth
I've found my destiny in you

[Chorus]

Your love was
Written on my heart





You're forever
Written on my heart

My God, this was my jam as a kid...even had it on VHS

Wow, I haven't heard this song for quite a while!  This song is my testimony.  I love it.  I fell away from God  in my 20's   and was in such a dark place. When I did came back  ( God brought me back) -  the words of this song  was so it (right on).  I am back in the arms of Jesus and His great love.  Thank you guys for this song.
