My heart wanders far away
Clouds roll in, my sky turns grey
Forgetting all your blessings
Pride grips me and it stings

Have mercy on me, oh God
According to Your kindness
Wash my soul from all sin
Open my heart and enter in

You desire truth in my soul
So in Your school I enroll
Take Your burning coals of fire
Cleanse my heart as You desire

Chorus
I surrender in submission
To Your self-forgetting mission
Anoint me with Your healing oil
Oh Lord, keep me in You unsoiled.
