Break Our Hearts
Passion's song "Break Our Hearts" is a corporate prayer of repentance, asking God to break hearts over personal and national sin. The repeated plea for brokenness reflects a desire for genuine humility and contrition. The spoken bridge quotes Psalm 51, emphasizing that God values a broken and contrite heart over religious ritual. The song confesses sin and cries out for God's help and power to restore the land. It is a heartfelt call for revival and spiritual renewal, rooted in biblical themes of repentance and dependence on God's mercy.
Break our hearts, oh God
Break our hearts
Break our hearts, oh God
Break our hearts
For the sin in our lives, break our hearts
For the sin in our land, break our hearts
We cry out, we need Your help
Come back to our land
We confess, we've lived in sin
Please show Your power once again
Break our hearts, oh God
Break our hearts
Break our hearts, oh God
Break our hearts
For the sin in our lives, break our hearts
For the sin in our land, break our hearts
We cry out, we need Your help
Come back to our land
We confess, we've lived in sin
Please show Your power once again
We cry out, we need Your help
Come back to our land
We confess, we've lived in sin
Please show Your power once again
We cry out, we need Your help
Come back to our land
We confess, we've lived in sin
Please show Your power once again
[Spoken:]
O, Lord, open my lips
And my mouth will declare Your praise
You do not delight in sacrifice, or I would bring it
You do not take pleasure in burnt offerings
The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit
A broken and contrite heart
O God, You do not despise
