Verse 1

For the times
That I’ve misused Your name
And leveraged it for my own fame
For the kingdoms I’ve been building
On my own
For the times I chose
To play it safe
When You said give it all away
For the idols
That I’ve let into my home

Chorus

Create in me a clean heart God
And renew a right Spirit
Renew a right Spirit within me
Create in me a clean heart God
And renew a right Spirit
Renew a right Spirit within me

Verse 2

For the times
I chose the counterfeit
Dismissed Your voice like Jonah did
When I leaned into fear
Instead of faith
For the narrow path I didn’t take
When I fell short in my own strength
You said look
And I just looked away
Well I’m looking now

Chorus

Create in me a clean heart God
And renew a right Spirit
Renew a right Spirit within me
Create in me a clean heart God
And renew a right Spirit
Renew a right Spirit within me

Post Chorus

Renew a right Spirit
A right Spirit within me

Bridge 1

The kindness of God it
It leads to repentance
The arms of the Father
Are full of forgiveness

Bridge 2

You gave me a clean heart
A place where Your glory can rest
You made me a temple
A place where Your presence can live

Bridge 1

The kindness of God it
It leads to repentance
The arms of the Father
Are full of forgiveness

Bridge 2

You gave me a clean heart
A place where Your glory can rest
You made me a temple
A place where Your presence can live

Chorus

Create in me a clean heart God
And renew a right Spirit
Renew a right Spirit within me
Create in me a clean heart God
And renew a right Spirit
A right Spirit
