“Truth in My Heart”

[ “Truth in My Heart”]

[Verse 1]
I won’t deny what I have done
Nor claim I did what I have shunned
Even the smallest lie I’ll flee
For truth is light that sets me free
[Chorus]
Truth in my heart, truth on my tongue
Words that are pure, praises sung
No false witness, no deceit
In God’s bright truth, I’m made complete

[Verse 2]
I won’t add or take away
When I repeat what others say
No twisting tones, no hidden sting
I’ll speak with grace in everything
[Chorus]
Truth in my heart, truth on my tongue
Words that are pure, praises sung
No false witness, no deceit
In God’s bright truth, I’m made complete

[Verse 3]
I won’t assume what’s in your mind
Or judge your heart with thoughts unkind
I’ll see the good, not search for blame
And lift you up in Jesus’ name
[Chorus]
Truth in my heart, truth on my tongue
Words that are pure, praises sung
No false witness, no deceit
In God’s bright truth, I’m made complete

[Verse 4]
Even white lies I’ll lay down
No need to twist or wear a frown
For God delights in honest ways
And fills the truth with healing praise
[Chorus]
Truth in my heart, truth on my tongue
Words that are pure, praises sung
No false witness, no deceit
In God’s bright truth, I’m made complete

[Verse 5]
I won’t exaggerate or shrink
Or speak too fast before I think
I’ll guard my words with holy care
And speak the truth in love and prayer
[Chorus]
Truth in my heart, truth on my tongue
Words that are pure, praises sung
No false witness, no deceit
In God’s bright truth, I’m made complete

[Verse 6]
Lord, cleanse my heart from every lie
Let truth alone be my reply
Your Word, my light, my shield, my song
In truth and grace, I will belong
[Chorus]
Truth in my heart, truth on my tongue
Words that are pure, praises sung
No false witness, no deceit
In God’s bright truth, I’m made complete
