Renew My Spirit

(album: Mattie Moss Clark Presents The Clark Sisters - 1974)

Lord God I need thee
With your mighty, outstretched hand
Lord God I see thee
With your mighty, powerful hand
Create in me love of a lean heart

Renew, renew, renew my spirit (Lord God)
Within, within

I'm nothing, Lord, in and outside
Whatever it takes, Lord change me
All that I've done wrong
Please forgive me
Here I stand Lord, Lord
Lord please forgive me, Lord

Receive my soul, receive my soul (receive my soul)
Receive my soul, receive my soul (receive my soul)
(God, God once again give me)
Give me the joy, give me the joy (give me the joy)
Give me the joy, give me the joy (give me)
(Lord, Lord, my salvation)

Renew, renew, renew my spirit (renew my spirit)
Renew, renew, renew my spirit (Lord renew)
Renew, renew, renew my spirit (renew my holy spirit)
Renew, renew, renew my spirit (renew my holy spirit)
Renew, renew, renew my spirit (Lord God)
Within (within me Lord God)
Within (with me, a new man)
Within (renew me Lord God)
Within (renew my soul)
Within (now renew my Jesus)
Within (give me a pure heart)
Within (sanctify me Lord)
Within (give me a holy spirit)
Within (c'mon Jesus)
Within (wash me holy God)
Within (make me bole)
Within (make me holy)

This is my prayer (my prayer)
Answer today
Lord in my life
Have not away

Renew, renew, renew my spirit (oh Lord, renew my spirit)
Renew, renew, renew my spirit (renew me, renew me Lord)
Renew, renew, renew my spirit (make me holy, make me holy)
Renew, renew, renew my spirit (Lord God renew me)
Renew, renew, renew my spirit (renew my holy spirit)
Renew, renew, renew my spirit (now Lord)
Within (once again Lord)
Within (I want you to wash my mind)
Within (I want you to clean my heart)
Within (I want you to wash me Lord)
Within (wash me and make me holy)
Within (Lord make me holy)
Within (wash my mind Lord)
Within (make me holy Lord God)
Within (wash me Jesus, Lord)
Within (wash me clean Lord)
Within (make me holy Lord)
Within (I want you to wash me)
Within (oh)
