And then there's Grace
: A Hard Shell and A Soft Heart by Carolyn 'Deaton' Stephens

A Hard Shell and a Soft Heart

When we go into the world
To teach what God has said
We must suit up in our armor
When rising from our bed

The lost is all around us
And the world will not receive
How can we reach them Lord
And from Hell their souls retrieve

My armor is not seamless Lord
Sometimes persecution pierces through
But I still should wear it everyday
The Kingdoms work to do

Am I tough, yet loving
Against the daggers of unbelief
Will I teach truth
And in so doing
The sins of the world relieve

Walk with me Lord
Give me a heart
That's always sweet and kind
Help me to love and to forgive
And keep you in my mind

Remind me Lord
Each day I pray
To always do my part
And give me Lord an Armadillo Shell
And a soft Marshmallow heart
