CREATE IN ME
Refrain:
Create in me a clean heart
Put a new and right spirit within me
Cast me not away from Your presence
And take not Your Holy Spirit from me
Verse 1:
Have mercy on me, O God, in Your goodness
In Your compassion, blot out all my sin
Thoroughly cleanse me from all of my guilt
Wash me till I’m whiter than snow (Refrain)
Verse 2:
Restore to me the joy of Your salvation
Uphold me with a willing spirit
So I will teach transgressors Your ways
And sinners will return to You (Refrain)
Verse 3:
You are pleased with sincerity of heart
Not with sacrifices or with holocausts
My sacrifice is a broken spirit
For You will not refuse a humble heart (Refrain)
Coda:
Create in me a clean heart
