  • My Eyes are Dry: A Song and Prayer for Lent

    By Sam at Creative Theology

    My eyes are dry
    My faith is old
    My heart is hard
    My prayers are cold
    And I know how I ought to be
    Alive to You and dead to me

    But what can be done
    For an old heart like mine
    Soften it up
    With oil and wine
    The oil is You, Your Spirit of love
    Please wash me anew
    With the wine of Your Blood

    My eyes are dry
    My faith is old
    My heart is hard
    My prayers are cold
    And I know how I ought to be
    Alive to You and dead to me

    But what can be done
    For an old heart like mine
    Soften it up
    With oil and wine
    The oil is You, Your Spirit of love
    Please wash me anew
    With the wine of Your Blood

    My Eyes are Dry by Keith Green. This song is a perfect prayer for Lent.

    Lord, please wash us anew. Amen.

    This is a part of a series of daily reflections on the season of Lent.
