Back
There Goes My Heart
by Julie Hufstetler, copyright 2004

There goes my heart again
Walking around outside of me
Getting on the school bus
Leaving for the day
Heading off to somewhere I won't be

And round and round those wheels turn
Taking my thoughts away

And I pray, I pray God bless their day
Guide them in Your special way
Give them courage, Lord to do what's right
Bring them safely home to me tonight
There goes my heart
There goes my heart again
Driver's license in his hand
Pulling out the driveway
Leaving for the day
Watching the car speed round the bend

And round and round those wheels turn
Taking my thoughts away

So many days you've brought us through
You'll take us through the rest
My heart can safely trust in You
Even when it's beating out my chest
