Forgiveness in Your heart

forgiveness in your heart
by Joel Howard

when i was dead in sin
you had mercy within
when i withdrew my love
your heart still had enough
you saw me in the dark
you had forgiveness in your heart
you had forgiveness in your heart
from the very start

from deep you called to deep
your love to the sin in me
your fire, it burned deep
you did my soul keep 
you did my soul keep

far was i from your house
far from my call, my God
but Jesus eternally
had already bled for me
had already bled for me

King Jesus
King Jesus
You see me
You see me
And as I fall away
You love me anyway
You love me anyway

"My son I saw you
When I know you didn't
Know I saw you
And you may wonder
What i felt
What i feel as I see you"

You saw me
You see me
With forgiveness in your heart
With openness of arms
"Forgiveness in my heart
Forgiveness in my heart
I love you where you are" 

As Adam and as Eve
Hid, shameful - blushing
Aghast at what they did
God you came and found them then

And so you find me too
My lips - afraid to move
But as you call me out
There's mercy in your heart
Forgiveness in your heart
Available, from the start

Take me to where you are
I fear you because God
There's forgiveness in your heart
Forgiveness in your heart
