Song Lyrics

---

Oh, God, I've been distracted
By so many things
Could I almost have forgotten
All the joy Your presence brings
So call to my soul
Pull on the ache in my heart
Let my spirit faint
Just to be where You are

And when my flame grows dim
Breathe new life in me again
Stir the embers in my soul
Till desire for You consumes me
I surrender all I am
Change me like only You can
In Your mercy make me whole
And light me up all for Your glory

Lift me up from the ashes
I want to burn for You again
Set my life on fire
With a blaze that doesn't end
Overwhelm me with a passion
To always know You more
Let me hunger
Like I never have before

And when my flame grows dim
Breathe new life in me again
Stir the embers in my soul
Till desire for You consumes me
I surrender all I am
Change me like only You can
In Your mercy make me whole
And light me up all for Your glory

Let me love You like You deserve to be loved
Let me follow You out past the end of time
Let me wait with expectation for a glimpse of Your face
Let Your grace be forever on my mind

And when my flame grows dim
Breathe new life in me again
Stir the embers in my soul
Till desire for You consumes me
I surrender all I am
Change me like only You can
In Your mercy make me whole
And light me up all for Your glory
