Create in me a pure heart, O God

lyricist: P. J.

Create in me a pure heart

O God

Fully empty my spirit within me;

So pure in heart

I’d see Thee

solely;

Poor in spirit

the kingdom I’d receive.

Deliver me from all my iniquities;

Take every veil and hindrance from me;

My stone heart replaced

turned

single for Thy face

I’d behold and reflect Thee gloriously.

Oh

purify my heart

Lord

wholly;

Empty all of my spirit utterly;

So pure in heart

I’d love Thee

supremely;

Poor in spirit

the kingdom I’d receive.

Unload everything from the depth of my being;

Spirit of revelation give me;

How blest to decrease

in spirit fully emptied

To receive Thy vast riches bountif’lly!

Oh

purify our heart

Lord

wholly;

Empty all of our spirit utterly;

So pure in heart

we’d see You solely;

Poor in spirit

the kingdom we’d receive.

Lord

make us that people who’d give You the way

To bring Your kingdom to earth

we pray;

Your name sanctify; fulfill Your will divine;

Quickly come for Your glorious wedding day.

Lord

we’d be that people who’d give You the way

To bring Your kingdom to earth today

Your name sanctify

fulfill Your will divine

And hasten Your glorious wedding day.
