I've been away from you,
once was i sitting at your feet,
listening to all that you say,
feeling your presence all day.
Now that I've grown up,
things have changed and fast.
I can't seem to keep myself,
sitting at the feet i once loved.
The heart of Mary that I've had,
Has far gone long now away.
Martha's heart is what I've caught,
and now I'm tired and lost.
I can't see the joy of living no more.
Work and responsibilities is all i have.
The joy of life has long gone disappeared.
Oh God, I miss sitting at your feet.
I want to put all the trays down,
and just listen and be with You.
But i don't understand at all,
Why I can't do it Oh Lord. .
Are the trays stuck on my hands?
Oh dear God. I want to sit down.
I want to be near, oh so close to You.
I've lost track of my sight, i need You.
Dear God, can you please help this lad?
I am long astray, working like crazy.
I've pleased others more than You.
How can i keep my eyes back to You?
Dear God Dear God. . How i miss you so.
Please take me back, I'm tired and lost.
I want to sit once again at your feet,
And listen to the beauty of your voice.
Dear God. . Please forgive my heart.
For it has began to please others,
And lost sight of your amazing love.
Now my heart is oh so weary and pale. .
Dear God. . I ask for the heart of Mary,
I want to sit at your feet once again,
I want to let go of these trays,
and let the heart of Martha fade away.
God, my God. Please hear my Plea,
Bring me back, Oh God please.
I know only You can save this heart,
This weary, tired and faded heart.
At Your feet, once more I want to sit.
