It’s a Matter of the Heart

It’s a matter of the heart
It’s a matter of the heart
Choosing to do what is right in God’s sight
It’s a matter of the heart

Don’t put the horse behind the cart
Follow God with all your heart
Choose to chart the smart and humble way
For if you choose Him from the start
All His blessings He’ll impart
It’s a matter of the heart

So it’s really up to you
You can choose the thing to do
But a gentle word of wisdom I’ll impart
Love the Lord with all your might
He will help you do what’s right
It’s a matter of the heart

It’s a matter of the heart (it’s a matter of the heart)|
It’s a matter of the heart (it’s a matter of the heart)
Choosing to do what is right in God’s sight
It’s a matter of the heart

Don’t put the horse behind the cart
Follow God with all your heart
Choose to chart the smart and humble way
For if you choose Him from the start
All His blessings He’ll impart
It’s a matter of the heart
It’s a matter of the heart
