A gospel song from Rich Owen's new What's Left of My Heart CD on Colt Records.
Verse 1:
My family thinks that I’m a rock
An anchor in a storm
They look to me to be their guide
To chart for them the safer course
But every night I pray to you,
And hope that they can’t see
I’m wandering without a star
Lord, please come and rescue me
Chorus 1:
I want to be washed in the blood
Cleansed by the fire
To finally find my way to you
To my heart’s true desire
I’m reaching out
A blind man in the dark, and so alone
And looking for your light…
To guide me home
Verse 2:
The evidence lies all around
It can not be denied
So why is my heart cold as stone
When will I feel your grace reside
If faith precedes the miracle
Then what precedes the faith
I’m looking for the smallest sign
To see me though another day
Chorus 2:
I want to be washed in the blood
Cleansed by the fire
To finally find my way to you
I’m reaching out
A blind man in the dark, and so alone
And looking for your light…
Bridge:
I know that I just can’t give in
But I don’t know what I’ll do
If you don’t give me something, yeah
For me to hold on to…
To guide...me…home
