a heart like yours

Cece Winans

I tried to reach out for You
But I fall
Sometimes You seem so close
And yet so far.
Oh I need another chance
I need to know Your mercy.
Just give me the strength to change within
I know that I'm not all that I can be.
My weakness seems to get the best of me.
But as long as you are here
I know that I will make it.
Every step along the way
Please hear my prayer

A heart like Yours, is my desire
A heart like Yours,
Is what I'm searching for.
Full of compassion,
Nothing wrong within
Please hear me Lord
Give me a heart like Yours...

So much grace, so much kindness
So much faith, forever true,
Strong as the wind, soft as the shadows
If just once I could be like You.
