Rich MullinsPsalm 59:17, John 10:14-16Well the night was cold and my heart wasHidden very safely in a shellBut I knew somehow I'd have to run that riskHave to open up myselfThey're the same ones Abraham sawCome under my wings I will make you shineGive you strength enough to loveOh, now I'm getting strong enoughYou helped me chip my way out and open myself upAnd for the snow that comes with winterFor the growth that comes from painFor the joke I can't rememberAlthough the laughter long remainsFor the faith that brought to finishAll I doubted at the startLord, I give you praise for all that makesFor the hatching of a heartWell my face was smooth and featurelessJust like an eggAnd if I was moved you would never guess itBy the look upon my faceBut You said man looks without but I look withinI can see the love you hideIt's a matter of doubt it's a symptom of sinIt's a problem of too much prideAnd I, now I'm opening up wideWet feathers pulled out from beneath meAnd You're teaching me to flyFor the strength that comes with friendshipFor the warmth that comes with hopeAnd for the love time can't diminishAnd for the time love takes to growAnd for the moonlight on the waterAnd for the bright and morning starLord I give you praise for all that makesFor the hatching of a heartAnd for the moonlight on the waterAnd for the bright and morning starLord I give you praise for all that makesFor the hatching of a heart
