Make Me New

Renew my mind that's sick and small. 

Refresh my heart that's sad and dry. 

Lift my heavy eyes today. 

Make me new. Make me new. 

Return the color to my world. 

Strengthen weary hands and arms. 

Lift this weight off of my soul. 

Give me grace for my shortcomings. 

Help me grow and overcome. 

Make an ending to my mourning. 

Comfort pain that aches for home. 

Bring me hope that carries burdens. 

Give me joy that clears my skies. 

May patience pave my paths with peace. 

Give me faith to breathe and stay. 

I am crumpled, small, and tired. 

I am lying in your hand. 

Smooth me out and make me lovely. 

Write a story on my face. 

May all who see me know your goodness;

All who hear me feel your love. 

This day is yours to recreate me. 

Here I am. Come; make me new.
