Inside My Heart Lyrics

This song was first played 'live' acoustically on the UK tour in November 1994. The album version however was completely rearranged and a new end section added to be more sympathetic to the words. Joanne writing in early 1995: "It's exciting to be at this stage, hearing things develop from what they were at the early writing stage. This week we worked on a song called 'Inside my Heart'. This particular song is the result of a collaboration between myself and a very gifted poet and close friend of mine called Cindy Spear Polley who lives in Canada. The first time I read Cindy's poem 'Inside my Heart', I found myself singing it. Nearly all the lines that Cindy had written fitted exactly to the melody and we had been brought together in this way for His purposes."

Quietly You arrived
Never forcing me to choose
Bringing Your perfect light
Into this sunless room of mine
So make Your home inside my heart
Fill this empty house of stone
Make Your home inside my heart
Let me dance in the brightness of Your throne
Of Your throne

Looking through stained windows
I see a rose on the wall
Thorns that draw blood from Your face
I hear the agony of Your call to me
So make Your home inside my heart
Fill this empty house of stone
Make Your home inside my heart
Let me dance in the brightness of Your throne
In the stillness of moonlight
I am awakened by Your grace
And the love that glistens
In the tears on Your face for me

So make Your home inside my heart
Fill this empty house of stone
Make Your home inside my heart
Let me dance in the brightness
Let me dance in the brightness of Your throne
Of Your throne...
