My Roving Heart Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Let worldly minds the world pursue
It has no charm for me
Once I admired it’s trifles too
But grace has set me free

[Chorus 1]
It’s pleasures now no longer please
No more content afford
Far from my heart be the joys like these
Now I have seen the Lord

[Verse 2]
As by the light of opening day
The stars are all concealed
So Earthly pleasures fade away
When Jesus is revealed

[Chorus 2]
Creatures no more divide my choice
I bid them all depart
His name, His love, His gracious voice
Have fixed my roving heart

[Verse 3]
Now Lord I will be thine alone
And wholly live to thee
But I may hope that you will own
A worthless soul like me
[Chorus 3]
Yes though of sinners I am the worst
I cannot doubt thy will
For if thou had not loved me first
I had refused thee still

[Chorus 2]
Creatures no more divide my choice
I bid them all depart
His name, His love, His gracious voice
Have fixed my roving heart

[Tag]
Have fixed my roving heart

  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
