Somewhere deep inside my heart
Hidden in the dark
A question is unanswered
I don't want to bring it out
Open up the doubt
But I need to know for sure
Who I'm really living for
Sometimes all my thoughts are mine
What I need is to be filled with more of You
Somehow, make me over now
You are all I need to be
Recreate Your mind in me
Give me vision through Your eyes
Teach me to despise
The things that do not please You
I am dying to be new
And to be more like You
Take me back to where I start
Lord, I need a softer heart
Sometimes all my thoughts are mine
What I need is to be filled with more of You
Somehow, make me over now
You are all I need to be
Recreate Your mind in me
Make me more like You
Make me more like You
Make me new
Make me more like You
Make me new
Make me more like You
Make me new
Make me more like You
Make me new
Make me more like You
Sometimes all my thoughts are mine
What I need is to be filled with more of You
Somehow, make me over now
You are all I need to be
Recreate Your mind in me
Sometimes all my thoughts are mine
What I need is to be filled with more of You
Somehow, make me over now
You are all I need to be
Recreate Your mind in me...
