Hearts Broken Open
Jen Brinton
Hearts unfold like flowers before Thee, Opening to the Son above! (Ode to Joy, v.1)
Hearts broken open before You
Releasing the fragrance of devotion
The sweetness of spikenard filling the air
Giving You pleasure
Break open the well of my heart
Let the beauty of Your fragrance
Fill the atmosphere
Mingled with the scent of precious oil
Of more worth to You than a thousand kingdoms
Let the oil of worship
Never be stopped
Let it flow all of my days
And into eternity
Though never so sweet to Your nostrils
As it is now, when it is not compelled
But a choice
