Lyrics

Keep on talkin' to me, keep on talkin' to me


Keep on talkin' to me, keep on talkin' to me


Keep on talkin' to me, keep on talkin' to me


Keep on talkin' to me


Speak to my heart, Holy Spirit


Give me the words that will bring new life


Words on the wings of the morning, the dark night will fade away


If You speak to my heart now


Speak to my heart, Holy Spirit


Message of love, love to encourage me


Lifting my heart from despair, how You love, love me, and care for me


Speak to my heart now, oh Lord


Speak to my heart, Holy Spirit


Give me the words that will bring new life


Words on the wings of the morning, the dark nights will fade away


Speak to my heart


Speak to my heart, Holy Spirit


Message of love to encourage me


Lifting my heart from despair, how You love me and care for me


Speak to my heart


Speak to my heart, that's what I want You to do


Speak to my heart, 'cause I'm waiting to hear from You


Speak to my heart, that's what I want You to do


Speak to my heart


Speak to my heart, Lord, give me Your holy word


If I can hear from You, then I'll know what to do


I won't go alone, I'll never go on my own


Just let Your spirit guide and let Your word abide, say


Speak to my heart, Lord, give me Your holy word


If I can hear from You, then I'll know what to do


I won't go alone, Lord, I'll never go on my own


Just let Your spirit guide and let Your word abide


Speak to my heart, Lord, give me your holy word


If I can hear from You, then I'll know what to do


I won't go alone, I'll never go on my own


Just let Your spirit guide and let Your word abide


Speak to my heart, Lord, give me Your holy word


If I can hear from You, then I'll know what to do


I won't go alone, I'll never go on my own


Just let Your spirit guide and let Your word abide


Speak to my heart, Lord, give me Your holy word


If I can hear from You, then I'll know what to do


I won't go alone, I'll never go on my own


Just let Your spirit guide and let Your word abide


Talk to me, talk to me, talk to me, talk to me, yeah, yeah


Talk to me, talk to me, talk to me, talk


Keep on talkin' to me, keep on talkin' to me, yeah, yeah


Keep on talkin' to me, talk to me, talk

Meaning & Inspiration

Speak To My Heart is framed as a sustained prayer for the Holy Spirit’s guidance. The singer asks for words that bring life, encouragement that lifts despair, and direction strong enough to shape the next step. Images of morning overcoming a dark night connect divine speech with renewed hope. The song does not present guidance as self-generated certainty; it treats God’s word and Spirit as the dependable source of wisdom.

Its repeated request gradually becomes a confession of dependence. The singer refuses to move alone and asks for the Spirit to guide while God’s word remains within. That emphasis aligns closely with biblical passages about the Spirit leading into truth and Scripture providing light for a path. Repetition gives the prayer an expectant quality, as though faithful listening requires patience as well as desire. Love, care, clarity, and obedience remain linked throughout, making the song both a plea for comfort and a commitment to follow divine direction.
