Reckless Heart

I have a reckless heart

That loves without fear of consequences

A fearless soul

Throwing caution to the wind

And charges in

It soars to great heights

And swoops to great lows

My reckless heart

It doesn’t understand caution or patience

It knows when it feels a connection and

Throws caution to the wind and chases after it

My reckless heart has caused me multiple broken hearts

But I wouldn’t change it for anything

My reckless heart

Reminds me that Love is real

And worth the cost

My brain cries out that the cost is high

For it remembers every broken heart

Every betrayal

While my heart remembers not

My heart sees only the best

While my mind sees mainly the worst

How I love my reckless heart

Surrounded in love

I’ve thrown off the chains

I want to pursue God

But I’ve still got some entanglements

That do not let me pursue

With the reckless abandon that I know

I have

Making me want more than I have

Causing

This reckless heart of mine

To seek my God
