Wanda Mann - Closest to My Heart Lyrics

I live in a paradox, I don't know about you
For I seem to fail the most with those that I hold true
Could it be I take for granted, could it be I do
And deprive the ones I love, the love I know from You

I do the things I don't want, say the words I don't want
Hurting ones I hold close to my heart
By doing the things I don't want, saying the words I don't want
Hurting ones held closest to my heart

Sometimes it's like a struggle against the current of the age
For it is opposed to everything my spirit craves
Holy Spirit occupy, put my mind at ease
Jesus, You are Lord of all, now be the Lord of me

I want to know You, be found to be like You
I want to be more like You
