[Verse] Forty days to lay it down This heavy heart of mine Trade my thoughts for waters clear Let Your spirit shine Hands that falter Words that sting I lay them at Your feet Make me over Make me whole Where grace and love both meet [Verse 2] My hunger burns But not for bread It’s You I truly seek A stronger soul A softer heart Where I was very weak Sinful deeds that smeared my name I leave behind in shame Breathe in me now a living fire To glorify Your name [Chorus] Renew me now O Holy Spirit Let Your love take control Shape me Break me Make me new Refine my weary soul Sinful chains I'll leave them here Where mercy flows like dew Take me higher Set me free Make all things pure and true [Verse 3] The mind that wanders far from light Bring it close to You Sow good seeds where thorns have grown Let mercy now break through Abstain from lies Unkind replies Instead build what is right Guide me on that narrow path Your word My daily light [Bridge] Teach my heart to love like You To act Not just to pray The challenge here is more than words It’s in the steps I take each day Let my soul inhale Your grace Exhale this world’s deceit Lead me far from sin's appeal And into joy complete [Chorus] Renew me now O Holy Spirit Let Your love take control Shape me Break me Make me new Refine my weary soul Sinful chains I'll leave them here Where mercy flows like dew Take me higher Set me free Make all things pure and true
