GospelSongLyrics.org: Cleanse Me lyrics

Search me, O God
And know my heart today;
Try me, O Savior
Know my thoughts, I pray.
See if there be
Some wicked way in me;
Cleanse me from every sin
And set me free.

I praise Thee, Lord
For cleansing me from sin;
Fulfill Thy Word
And make me pure within.
Fill me with fire
Where once I burned with shame;
Grant my desire
To magnify Thy Name.

Lord, take my life
And make it wholly Thine;
Fill my poor heart
With Thy great love divine.
Take all my will
My passion, self and pride;
I now surrender, Lord
In me abide.

O Holy Ghost
Revival comes from Thee;
Send a revival
Start the work in me.
Thy Word declares
Thou wilt supply our need;
For blessings now
O Lord, I humbly plead.
