Album: Hearts

Genre: Neo Classical

Theme: Struggle & Surrender

About This Song:

A cry for mercy in a world where truth has fallen, justice has faded, and every one of us feels the weight of our own brokenness. The song acknowledges the painful reality that all of us—saved or not—contribute to the fallenness around us, unable to cleanse or change our own hearts. We cannot fix ourselves — our hearts are deceitful, our righteousness falls short, and our efforts fail. Yet the song carries a deep hope: when we seek God with sincerity, He hears us. He alone creates clean hearts, renews willing spirits, and restores those who look to Him. Hearts is both confession and invitation — a reminder that the God of our salvation answers all who truly seek Him.
