I try 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 am 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



Refrain



A heart like yours, is my desire

A heart like yours, is what I am 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, for ever true 

Strong as the wind, soft as the shadows

If just once, I could be like you



Refrain



A heart like yours, is my desire 

A heart like yours, is what I am searching for

Full of compassion, nothing wrong within

Please hear me Lord, give me a heart like yours

Please hear me Lord, give me a heart like yours (2x)
