Garden My Heart
Parody of "Harden My Heart" by Quarterflash
((Hosea 10:12, Jeremiah 4:3, James 5:7-8))

I am like a farmer, waitin' on the rain
I stare up at Heaven and I pray again
You gave me Your Word -- words of truth and life
Pardonin' my wild misdeeds -- and every thought I'd sown
With this kindness that You've shown

I'm gonna garden my heart
It's gone to fallow, I fear
I'm gonna turn and seek You here

All of my life I've been wastin' Your grain
I've been basin' it on feelings -- and never ever faith
The field still grows – but all these weeds appeared
Farmers need to plow, it seems – I never had a clue
Well, it's time You taught me to

I'm gonna garden my heart
Don't wanna follow my peers
I'm gonna turn and seek You here
LEAD

Pardon all my wild misdeeds -- and every thought I sow
With this kindness that You show

I'm gonna garden my heart
Break up the fallow ground here
It's gonna turn and be a new year

I'm gonna garden my heart
It's gone to fallow, I fear
I'm gonna garden my heart
Don't wanna follow my peers
Garden my heart
Break up the fallow ground here
Hoe, oh, oh, oh
Garden my heart
I'm gonna garden my heart
It's gone to fallow, I fear
I'm gonna garden my heart
Don't wanna follow my peers
Garden my heart, garden my heart
Startin' right here
I'm gonna garden my heart
I'm a-gonna start it right here
