Analysis of If You Open Your Heart



If You Open Your Heart
Author:Mark V. Markov

Hope and love lingers
So near
God's presence
Can take away all of your fear

If you open your heart,
If you open your heart to God
Feel His presence inside.
In this life
You won't fall apart
True love
Will be your light

As you believe
As you strive
Feel God's presence in your life
Feel so alive

Jesus Christ is the way
Jesus Christ is the truth
He is the Redeemer of your life
Trust Him with all of your heart

He will help you
To make it through
He will help you to stay true
In this life
Feel God's presence
And become spiritually alive

If you open your heart,
If you open your heart to God
Feel His presence inside.
In this life
You won't fall apart
True love
Will be your light

As you believe
As you strive
Feel God's presence in your life
Feel so alive

Jesus Christ is the way
Jesus Christ is the truth
He is the Redeemer of your life
Trust Him with all of your heart

He will help you
To make it through
He will help you to stay true
In this life
Feel God's presence
And become spiritually alive
