Lyrics
Verse 1
I open up to you
This love that makes me new
Oh may my heart receive
This love that carries me
Chorus
From the head to the heart
You take me on a journey
Of letting go
And getting lost in you
Chorus
From the head to the heart
You take me on a journey
Of letting go
And getting lost in you
Verse 2
My heart is open wide
I will receive your light
You give me faith like a child
In you my heart runs wild
Bridge
Cuz there's no shame
In looking like a fool
When I give you what I can't keep
To take a hold of you
Bridge
There's no shame
In looking like a fool
When I give you what I can't keep
To take a hold of you

More than words
More than good ideas
I found your love in the open fields

Meaning & Inspiration
Head To The Heart is a song about moving from knowing about God to trusting Him. The opening opens up to a love that makes the singer new, asking that the heart receive it, and the chorus describes a movement from the head to the heart on a path of letting go and getting lost in Him. The next verse offers an open heart, receives His light and asks for childlike faith.
The bridge says there is no shame in looking like a fool when giving God what cannot be kept, and the later lines say His love was found in the open fields, more than words or good ideas. These ideas fit Matthew 18:3 on becoming like children, 1 Corinthians 1:27 and 2 Samuel 6:21-22 on looking foolish for the Lord, and Ephesians 3:17-19 on love beyond knowledge. The lyrics use "you" without naming Jesus, but the setting is devotional. Repeats and a gentle pace invite quiet worship.
