Help me open my mind to the depth of your presence
Help me learn to relax in your arms
Help me open my heart to the people you bring me
And respond to the depth of their charms
Help me trust in the dark to Your clearness of vision
Help me let go of terror and fear
Help me live by Your guidance and relax in the Spirit
In the safety of knowing You're near
Help me, help me open my heart, Oh Lord,
Help me, yes I'm ready to start, my Lord,
I'm open to playing my part
Help me give the fulfillment of love to my neighbour
Help me see with a deep inner eye
Help me listen more deeply behind the confusion
Of most people and not miss their cry
Help me notice the vulnerability hidden
Help me reach pain that's so deep inside
Help me break through the walls people build when they're running
'Cause they're anxiously trying to hide
Help me, help me open my heart, Oh Lord,
Help me, yes I'm ready to start, my Lord,
I'm open to playing my part
Lord we're living, through the Love you give
Help us share it, so others can live
Help me open my heart to the poor and the lonely
Help me give of my wealth and my time
Help me shoulder the burden beside them if only
Just to wipe away dirt, dust and grime
Help me see past appearance to love buried deeply
Help me cast aside power and pride
Help me grow in humility deep in your Spirit
From the depths in the silence inside
Help me, help me open my heart, Oh Lord,
Help me, yes I'm ready to start, my Lord,
I'm open to playing my part
Help me, help me open my heart, Oh Lord,
Help me, yes I'm ready to start, my Lord,
I'm open to playing my part
Luke 10:27
And he answered, "You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind, and your neighbor as yourself."
cf: Matthew 1:1-8, Psalm 51:10, Ezekiel 36:26, Romans 12:2, 2 Corinthians 3:18, Philippians 1:6
