Guard Your Heart.




In the NIV version Proverbs 4:23 reads:
Above all else, guard your heart, for it is the wellspring of life.

Here's a song by Steve Green entitled "Guard Your Heart".

Oh, be careful little eyes what you see  
Oh, be careful little eyes what you see 
For the Father up above Is looking down in love  
Oh, be careful little eyes what you see    

What appears to be harmless glance?  
Can turn to romance  
And homes are divided 
Feelings that should never have been  
Awakened within  
Tearing the heart in two  
Listen, I beg of you    

Guard your Heart  
Guard your Heart  
Don't trade it for treasure  
Don't give it away    

Guard your Heart  
Guard your Heart 
As a payment for pleasure  
It's high price to pay   
For a soul that remains sincere with conscience clear  
Guard your Heart    

The human heart is easily swayed  
And often betrayed at the hand of emotion  
You dare not leave the outcome to chance  
You must choose in advance  
Or live with the agony  
Such needless tragedy    

Guard your Heart  
Guard your Heart  
Don't trade it for treasure  
Don't give it away   
Guard your Heart  
Guard your Heart  
As a payment for pleasure It's high price to pay    

Guard your Heart  
Guard your Heart  
Don't trade it for treasure  
Don't give it away    
Guard your Heart  
Guard your Heart  
As a payment for pleasure It's high price to pay    
For a soul that remains sincere with conscience clear  
Guard your Heart.
