My Roving Heart - All Sons & Daughters, Leslie Jordan, David Leonard

Let worldly minds the world pursue

It has no charms for me

Once I admired it’s trifles, too

But grace has set me free

It’s pleasure now no longer please

No more content afford

Far from my heart be the joys like these

Now I have seen the Lord

As by the light of opening day

The stars are all concealed

So earthly pleasures fade away

When Jesus is revealed

Creatures no more divide my choice;

I bid them all depart

His name, His love, His gracious voice

Have fixed my roving heart

Now Lord I will be Thine alone

And wholly live to Thee

But I may hope that Your will own

A worthless soul like me

Yes tho of sinners I am the worst

I cannot doubt thy will

For if Thou had not loved me first

I had refused thee still

Creatures no more divide my choice;

I bid them all depart

His name, His love, His gracious voice

Have fixed my roving heart
