I pulled up to the stoplight And I saw him standing there The cardboard sign he held Said he was hungry I looked the other way And waited for the light to change As if to say "I'd help But I'm in such a hurry." These are the moments of truth What would love have me do? Heartbeat of heaven I want you to be my own Heartbeat of heaven I want my life to show The kind of love that comes and goes With the heartbeat of heaven I know sometimes this heart of mine Beats only for itself Full of hopes and dreams, and plans of progress But this heart beating here in me Belongs to Someone else He bought it with His life to show His love This is my prayer, Lord, today Let this heart beat Your way Loving, joyful, peaceful, patient Kind and good, and full of faith Self-controlled and gentle Oh, the heart of heaven beats this way Heartbeat of heaven, beat in me
