   My heart is as dark as the soil sodden with winter rains
C                C7                        Fmaj7                  Fm
   My soul is as heavy as the peat freshly dug from the bog
C                         C7                        Fmaj7         Fm
   My thoughts swirl like willow branches caught in autumn winds
C                C7                     Fmaj7                     Fm
   My body is as tense as a cat's as it stalks its prey

   Help me open my heart to You
F          C/G           Cmaj7
   Help me open my heart to You
F          C/G              Bb
   Help me open my heart to You oh Jesus
               G/B     C
   It's what I long to do
Fadd9    C   Fadd9
   To do


(Brighten my heart, lighten my soul, still my thoughts, relax my body)
