Overflow

If You’ve really changed me

it should be a strange thing

when the words that leave my mouth

they don’t honor You.

My religion’s useless

if I can’t subdue this.

What’s inside is what comes out

and I’m left without excuse.

My words condemn

or set me free.

If Your name’s not on my lips

then what’s filling up my heart?

Overflow. Overflow. Overflow.

When it looks like I might trip

make it end before it starts.

Overflow. Overflow. Overflow.

Yesterday I said some things

You’d never have me say.

I’m afraid those words I said

might break a heart You made

Please break my heart instead

and do what You must do

Heal me up and fill my cup

until I’m overflowing You.

If Your name’s not on my lips

then what’s filling up my heart?

Overflow. Overflow. Overflow.

When it looks like I might trip

make it end before it starts.

Overflow. Overflow. Overflow.
