Broken
And so tired of myself
I just give up
Cause I won't make it in my own strength
I want you to be pleased with what I say and do
Lord I'm all yours
Cause you can do with me more than I can do
So Lord here I am
I'm coming to you
I'm sick of my ways
I wanna be new
I'm asking you to replace me
Lord, replace me with you
Just as I am
I come to you
I'm sick of my ways
Make me brand new
I'm asking you to replace me
Yea, replace me with you
I've seen all that can do
And its nothing in comparison to you Lord
Do so, impress me (you're amazing)
You're all that I will ever need and more
Cause I've reached my potential
[claps] Bravo (yes) I even got a standing O
But now I'm ready to be made over again Lord
Take me, replace me
Lord here I am
I'm coming to you
I'm tired of my ways
I wanna be new
Lord replace me
Please Lord, replace me wiith you
Just as I am
I'm running to you
I'm changing my ways
Make me brand new
I want you to replace me
(Cause I don't wanna be me no more)
Replace me with you
No more (no more of me)
No more of me
But more Lord
More Lord
More Lord of you
[repeat]
[Music Break]
Take me now I'm all yours
Just take me now I'm all yours
(I'm all yours)
Replace me, here I am
I'm all yours
Replace me, here I am
I'm all yours, I'm all yours
