His music is a mix of the heartfelt and spiritual. Though less pedestrian in terms of subject matter, his music has enjoyed widespread fame in the Catholic Charismatic movement and his albums have enjoyed a sustained success in Malta, the UK, and Australia, to name but a few. Perhaps increased attention of late to the needs of new converts and those still in need of discovering God in their lives will add a new dimension to his work in future.
Robert has written a number of songs for various campaigns and international conferences. He will also feature in the 2008 World Youth Day celebrations in Sydney, and appears in the international version of the official 2008 World Youth Day song "Receive the Power" singing the Italian verses.
Open Your Heart
Robert Galea Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You can searched the deepest corners of this world;
You can reach out to the stars, search through Jupiter and Mars,
But the answer to your questions won't be found.
The treasure your looking for, is right here, what are you waiting for?
You have to open your heart, open your life, offer your soul,
Just give Him control.
You have to open your heart, open your mind, offer your soul,
Living water, spring of life, God of hope, my delight,
You're the source, of all that's good in me.
Here I am, fill me now, quench this thirst for Your love.
Only You, God, can satisfy.
The treasure your looking for, is right here, what are you waiting for?
You have to open your heart, open your mind, offer your soul,
Just give Him control.
You have to open your heart, open your life, offer your soul,
Just give Him control.
Then you'll find what your looking for, all you need, want and more.
Yes you'll find what your looking for, all you need want and more.
Open your mind, offer your soul, just give Him control.
You have to open your heart, open your life, offer your soul,
Just give Him control.
Then you'll find what your looking for, all you need want and more.
You have to open your heart. You have to open your heart.
Open your heart.

The lyrics of Robert Galeaβs song βOpen Your Heartβ speak about the desire people have to find answers to their deepest questions and the endless search they make to find them. The words describe the futile attempts people make to find the treasure they are looking for in far-off places, such as running a thousand miles, climbing the highest heights, and searching the deepest corners of the world. Even reaching out to the stars and searching through Jupiter and Mars will not bring the answers they seek. Instead, the answer lies within themselves, and they need to open their hearts, minds, and souls to find it.
The song also speaks about the role of God as the source of hope, the giver of life, and the one who provides all that is good in people. By opening their hearts, people allow God to control their lives and fill them with His love, which is the only thing that can truly satisfy their thirst. The song encourages listeners to offer their souls to God and give Him control of their lives, only then will they find everything they need and more.
In conclusion, βOpen Your Heartβ is a powerful message of faith that encourages listeners to look within themselves and find strength, hope, and peace by opening their hearts to God. It reminds us that true happiness is found not in external things, but in the love of God that surpasses all understanding.
