Purify Me

This was the first song I ever wrote.  I felt God speak to me to sing over a friend’s dad who was in ICU and I didn’t want to do it because I knew it would be the hardest thing I had ever had to do…I chose obedience even though I cried almost through the whole song and a few days later he passed away.  The day after his funeral I was driving home from church and the words and music came all at once.  It was definitely a God moment for me writing it as well as sharing it with my friend whose father had passed away.   
Lyrics:

Create in me a pure heart so I can see You

Wash me clean and blameless until all that remains is You

Through eyes of love and mercy, eyes that see You

Purify my heart Lord, purify me

Purify my heart Lord, purify me

Renew a steadfast spirit Lord I want to be like You

Full of compassion may I learn to be like You

So teach this willing servant to walk humbly after You

All of my days, all of my days
