At The Center

Olivia Buckles

Have I fallen in love with my offering more than my precious Christ?
Have I fallen in love with my own song more than his sacrifice?
'Cause my gift is not for nothing, I still pray that it's pleasing
May my eyes not be consumed with what I bring
Christ at the center of my heart

I need to see again, I wanna burn again
Open my eyes, open my eyes

It's not about being famous
Making a name for myself
Oh, to be a friend of the bridegroom with eyes for no one else
John was glad to decrease
I don't wanna stand before you here you say you never knew me
For the eyes of man are intoxicating and the flesh that is fed is strong
But a life in the spirit is pleasing to God

What am I chasing after, if the vision isn't Christ and Christ crucified?
Oh, what am I chasing after if the vision isn't Christ and Christ crucified?
Christ at the center of my heart

If I raise a family in quiet in a still and simple life
If I never have a lot of money, but my spirit is alive
And if no one knows my name, but the vision of my home is Christ
Oh, will I be satisfied?
Christ at the center of my life

If I'm faithful with my hands and I'm mostly on time
If I keep the words I say and decide to never lie
If I'm honest with my tithing and I'm generous with all I'm given
If I live without a double mind
Christ at the center of my life

Oh, I pray you say you know me when the wedding feast comes
That my lamp would still be burning when I knock upon that door
Pray you would not turn me away
That the garments you give
Would say that I loved you, oh, truly loved you in this age

I need to see again, I wanna burn again
Open my eyes, open my eyes

I need to see again, I wanna burn again
Open my eyes, open my eyes

I wanna see again, I wanna burn again
Open my eyes, would you open my eyes?
Open my eyes, would you open my eyes?
Open my eyes again
To Christ at the center of my heart
