Lyrics
CHORUS:
Spirit of Jesus, fill me completely
Make me a vessel to carry Your love.
Show them Your kindness, beckoning sweetly
Make me a messenger sent from above.
I don't want to live outside Your presence
I don't want to live without Your grace
I just want to know Your love forever
Until i see You face to face
In all of Your power and glory
(Repeat CHORUS)
I don't want to go if You're not leading
I don't want to stay if You move on
I just want to be right here beside You
And with every new day
Where You lead me O Lord, I will follow
I don't want to live without Your power
I could never live without Your strength
I know I am nothing in myself, Lord
But by Your power I can do
All things through Christ who's working within me.
(Repeat CHORUS)
