This Heart of Mine

I borrowed the phrase ‘this heart of mine’ from the song Jesus Changed this Heart of Mine by the 1940s gospel group The Swan Silvertones and crafted this secular song while thinking about how life’s challenges have changed and shaped me.

Lyrics

This heart of mine, this heart of mine
The world has changed forever
This old heart of mine
I’ve been washed up and I’ve been crossed
I’ve been broken and I’ve been lost
And the world has changed forever
This old heart of mine
