If You make me clean I will be clean
If You make me whole I will be whole
If You make me Yours I will be Yours
and I won’t run anymore
If I seek You will I find You there
If I call Your name will You still hear
Is it too late or can I start again
Can I begin again
Oh Don’t ever let me go
Oh Don’t ever let me go
Oh Don’t ever let me go
Don’t ever let me go
Can You drown it in the deepest sea
Can You cast it far as west from east
Can You raise me up to live again
So I can live again
I’m surrendering my will
You are crumbling all the walls I’ve built
My defence is coming down down
I can’t deny You
I am broken open wide
Now You can come inside
My defences have come down down
I can’t deny You
