Don't let your heart be hardened, don't let your love grow cold
May it always stay so childlike, may it never grow too old
Don't let your heart be hardened, may you always know the cure
Keep it broken before Jesus; keep it thankful, meek, and pure

May it always feel compassion, may it beat as one with God's
May it never be contrary, may it never be at odds
May it always be forgiving, may it never know conceit
May it always be encouraged, may it never know defeat

Don't let your heart be hardened - don't let your love grow cold
May it always stay so childlike - may it never grow too old
Don't let your heart be hardened - may you always know the cure
Keep it broken before Jesus; keep it thankful, meek, and pure

May your heart be always open, never satisfied with right
May your filled with courage and be strengthened with all might

Don't let your heart be hardened - don't let your love grow cold
May it always stay so childlike - may it never grow too old
Don't let your heart be hardened - may you always know the cure
Keep it broken before Jesus; keep it thankful, meek, and pure

Let His love rain down upon you
Breaking up your fallow ground
Let it loosen all the binding
Till only tenderness is found

Don't let your heart be hardened - don't let your love grow cold
Don't let your heart be hardened - may you always know the cure
Keep it broken before Jesus; keep it thankful, meek, and pure
