lyrics
Cross my heart and hope to live
And give me words to give
To those who stumble lost through the night
And give me Lord a mustard seed
of faith for those in need
Oh, Lord cross my heart….cross my heart and hope to live
I met a man just the other day
Lost his job and lost his way
He was sleeping on the streets …a place I once called home.
I said sir, “I understand
would you like a helping hand?”
And then I washed his clothes and Jesus washed the man.
Oh, Cross my heart and hope to live
And give me words to give
To those who stumble lost through the night
And give me Lord a mustard seed
of faith for those in need
Oh, Lord cross my heart….cross my heart and hope to live
Musical Bridge
There’s a lady down the road
Lost everything I’m told
Now she works at night, selling something that shouldn’t be sold.
I said, “He’ll forgive your sins
if you know what I mean!”
So she took Him at His Word, and Jesus washed her clean.
Oh, Cross my heart and hope to live
And give me words to give
To those who stumble, lost through the night
And give me Lord a mustard seed
of faith for those in need
Oh, Lord cross my heart….cross my heart and hope to live
Oh, Jesus is the Way….cross my heart and hope to live.
