Can you not tarry a while
Can you afford me a moment
I have got so much to say
I've got an ocean to show you
Can you not spare just one smile
Can you not sit at my table
We could be the best of friends
If you would just let me in
But you won't
'Cause you don't
Think you're in need
(Chorus:)
Can you see
How His heart breaks
When He wants so much to carry you through
Can you hear
He is calling you, drawing you
Just to be part of your story
Let Him live in the heart of your story
How He longs to be part
Of your story
Do you remember a time
When all your flowers were blooming
You had a reason to live
When you had someone to follow
That was then
This is now
Something's changed
(Chorus)
Each day we live
We turn another page
Will He be right there inside
Found in each line
Found in each phrase?
Jesus is there at the door
Why don't you get up and answer
You could be the best of friends
If you would let him come in
Can you see
How His heart breaks
When He wants so much to carry you through
Can you hear
He is calling you, drawing you
Just to be part of your story
Can you fall
With your face down
Swallow your poisonous pride and be free
Can you feel
There's a wealth of compassion
That flows from the heart of the king
Won't you let Him be part of your story
Let Him live in the heart of your story
Won't you let Him be
Won't you
