Delight My Heart Lyrics

So many plans, so many dreams
So many hopes in me
So many goals tending to schemes
What am I meant to be?

Lead me back into the simple treasure I once knew
I will rest here in the perfect worth of knowing You

I will delight my heart in You, O Lord
I will delight my heart in You
All of the joy You give is what I long for
I will delight my heart in You

All that I want, think that I need
Where is the pure desire?
If I look up into Your eyes
I could regain the fire

Oh, return me to the simple treasure I once knew
I will live here in the perfect worth of knowing You

I will delight my heart in You, O Lord
I will delight my heart in You
All of the peace You give is what I long for
I will delight my heart in You
Oh, I will delight my heart in You

How can I forget that nothing less can fill me
When the Morning Star has come to live inside
Live inside me

I will delight my heart in You, O Lord
I will delight my heart in You
All of the love You give is what I long for
I will delight my heart in You
Oh, I will delight my heart in You

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
