I lay me down tonight
Searching for words 2 say
So many doubts that fight me
Calling out your name
But Lord it's me again
Ready for something new
Please rest upon my heart
Like the morning dew
Holy Spirit rain like Seattle
Overtake my life
Like a flood
Like California shake
What's not like you
I just want a heart like yours
Just like a painter has
Some colors and a brush
Upon the canvas soon
A masterpiece becomes
Please take all that I am
And all that I can be
Transform
Renew restore
Create a better me
Holy Spirit rain like Seattle
Overtake my life
Like a flood
Like California shake
What's not like you
I just want a heart like yours [X2]
Open up my heart
Fill me with your love
Every single part
Make me what you're made of
Take me from the start
Hold my hand in yours
Let the rain pour
Holy Spirit rain like Seattle
Overtake my life
Like a flood
Like California shake
What's not like you
I just want a heart like yours [X2]
