A Child After Your Heart

Verse 1
You are faithful even when I’m not
You provide for every need that I’ve got
Your mercies are new each morning
I know it because you woke me up
You’re still working on me Lord
You’re not done
Chorus
I want to know, I want to know
More of who you are
So teach me to see me like you see me Lord
A child after your own heart
I wanna know more of who you are
So teach me to see me like you see me
Lord I’m a child after your own heart
Verse 2
We wrap ourselves in dirty rags
Looking for beauty in fading things
But you want more than that for us
You wrap us in robes of royalty
And when I’m there before you naked
You see me more beautiful than
when I try to dress myself up for you
And hide my sin
Bridge
When our sins and when this world
make us feel ugly and want to hide
You tell us that we’re beautiful,
without a fault, your holy bride
And when I’m empty
I try to fill up on what won’t satisfy
But you say come and eat
eternal and drink water that won’t run dry
