My cheatin' heart

The following is a part of a hymn I've found myself meditating on lately. I have been having a hard time reading the Bible lately, so God has been ministering to me in the strangest ways... comments from professors, homework, DC conversations, friends, the weather, hymns that mysteriously get stuck in my head...

O to grace how great a debtor
Daily I'm contstrained to be.
Let thy goodness like a fetter
Bind my wandering heart to thee.

Prone to wander, Lord I feel it.
Prone to leave the God I love.
Here's my heart,
O take and seal it
Seal it for thy courts above.

-- from "Come Thou Fount"
