I've started listening to Worship music in my workouts again, and it's been great. Periodically, a song will strike me and I'll just sit there for a few minutes in between sets and think about the words, pray and worship in the moment. I love the lyrics to Come, Thou Fount. The lyrics are old english (I have no idea what a fetter is), but they really hit me:

O to grace how great a debtor
Daily I’m constrained to be!
Let thy goodness, like a fetter,
Bing my wand’ring heart to thee:
Prone to wander , Lord I feel it,
Prone to leave the God I love;
Here’s my heart, O take and seal it;
Seal it for thy courts above.
