Michael W. Smith's 'Something In My Heart' is a reflective worship song about spiritual awakening and the need for God's intervention. The lyrics describe a state of weariness and hesitation, where the soul feels stuck between where it stands and what it can see. The singer acknowledges that without God, they would never move, and that God is the spark that wakes something in their heart. The song conveys a sense of longing and dependence on God to overcome fear and bring renewal. It speaks to the experience of feeling spiritually stagnant and the transformative power of God's presence.

Endlesss dreaming
I'm fast asleep, forever reaching
Watching and waiting
My heart it keeps, keeps hesitating

Like a canyon in the in between
Where I'm standing and what I can see
If not for You, I never move
You are the spark

You wake something in my heart
Oh oh ah oh, oh oh ah oh
You wake something in my heart
Oh oh ah oh, oh oh ah oh, oh oh oh... oh oh

My soul grows weary
It's only forest from the clearing
And it's real in my head
And fear's an ocean I haven't crossed yet

Like a canyon in the in between
Where I'm standing and what I can see
If not for You, I never move
You are the spark

You wake something in my heart
Oh oh ah oh, oh oh ah oh
You wake something in my heart
Oh oh ah oh, oh oh ah oh, oh oh oh... oh oh
You wake, wake, wake, wake, wake
You wake something in my heart

If not for You I never move
You are the spark, spark

You wake something in my heart
Oh oh ah oh, oh oh ah oh
You wake something in my heart
Oh oh ah oh, oh oh ah oh, oh oh oh... oh oh

Oh oh ah oh, oh oh ah oh
You wake something in my heart
Oh oh ah oh, oh oh ah oh, oh oh oh... oh oh
