**Verse 1:**
Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean:
**(And I shall be clean)**
Wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.
**(Whiter than snow)**
Create in me a heart that is pure and true,
**(Lord, make me new)**
Renew a right spirit within me, I pray.
**(I pray today)**
[interlude]

**Chorus:**
And I shall be, I shall be whole!
**(I shall be whole)**
And I shall be, I shall be whole!
**(I shall be whole)**
With Your love, Lord, I am made free,
**(Made free in Thee)**
And I shall be, I shall be whole!
**(I shall be whole)**
**Verse 2:**
Cast me not away from Your presence, dear Lord,
**(Dear Lord, I implore)**
Take not Your Holy Spirit from me, I plead.
**(I plead to Thee)**
Restore unto me the joy of Your salvation,
**(Joy of salvation)**
Uphold me with Your Spirit, my heart will sing!
**(Let my heart sing)**

Create in me, Lord, a heart that's pure,
**(A heart that's pure)**
A spirit that's steadfast, forever secure.
**(Forever secure)**
In the depths of my soul, let Your light shine,
**(Let Your light shine)**
Wash away my sins, and I will be Thine!
**(I will be Thine)**

**(Forever in song)**
And I shall be, I shall be whole!
**(I shall be whole)**
