My heart is filled with thankfulness to him who bore my pain
Who plumbed the depths of my disgrace and gave me life again
Who crushed my curse of sinfulness and clothed me in his light
And wrote his law of righteousness with power upon my heart.
My heart is filled with thankfulness to him who walks beside
Who floods my weaknesses and strengths and causes fear to fly
Whose every promise is enough for every step I take
Sustaining me with arms of love and crowning me with grace.
My heart is filled with thankfulness to him who reigns above
Whose wisdom is my perfect peace, whose every thought is love
For every day I have on earth is given by the King
So I will give my life, my all, to love and follow him.
- Stuart Townend and Keith Getty

I heard part of a radio interview with Keith Getty on the way home from work the other day. They played 'My Heart Is Filled...' from the original recorded work with Joanna Hogg (a fav of mine) doing the vocal. The song was absolutely beautiful. The lyrics were amazing, like a modern day Psalm. Thanks for posting them here, as I wanted to find them to email them to my bro, who's a composer and church music director.
I heard this beautiful song at Belgrave Convention this morning. Do you know which CD it is on? I think it was written by Stuart Townsend. Do you know where I can find the music?
My granddaughter is called Lara. Great name, isn't it!
