Sara Groves Help Me Be New lyrics

God is doing a work in me
He's walking through my rooms and halls
Checking every corner
Tearing down the unsafe walls

And letting in the light and I am working hard
To clean my house and set it straight
Not let pride get in the way
To catch an eternal vision of what I am to become

Will You help me be new
Will You hold me to the promises
That I have made, will You let me be new?
Forgive my old self and my old mistakes

It seems easier living out my life in Christ
For those do not know it
To hide the thorn stuck in my side
And all my secret faults

But You know me well

And it's You I want the most to see
And recognize the changes
A word from You empowers me
To press on for my goal

Will You help me be new
Will You hold me to the promises
That I have made, will You let me be new?
Forgive my old self, and my old mistakes

When I feel condemned to live my old life
Remind me I've been given a new life in Christ

Will You help me be new
Will You hold me to the promises
That I have made, will You let me be new?
Forgive my old self, and my old mistakes
Will You You know me well
