Empty
Meredith Mauldin
There's a place in my heart that's empty
And I haver searched the world to find
Someone or something to fill it
But it's harder the longer it's denied
It's a hunger and I can't fill it
It's a thirst in a dry land
But my heart is starving for something
But it's stuck in the sinking sand
And I've searched in every direction
When I know you're calling my name
But I choose not to listen
'Cause I know I'll have to change
So this empty still remains
It shows its face in expectation
And again when achievement's not enough
The more I gain, the more I see it
But my heart still cries it's not enough
And I've searched in every direction
When I know you're calling my name
But I choose not to listen
'Cause I know I'll have to change
So this empty still remains
My control is the thing that holds me
And I know you'll fill this need
So you wait for me to sink deeper
Till I choose to hear my name
And I've searched in every direction
When I know you're calling my name
But I choose now to listen
And my heart is ready to change
And I've searched in every direction
When I know you're calling my name
And I choose now to listen
And my heart is ready to change
Come and fill this empty place
Fill this empty place
