This is another great Roby Curtis song from the emmanuelworship collection fifteen. It is a song of abandonment to God with allusions to a Pentecost experience.
This song is a catchy as all get out and loaded with hooks. The sheet music is free at their site.
I quite like what they have done with this song in their style, but my backing is in a lighter indie idiom. The half time instrumental break didn’t fit my version, so my instrumental section is more basic, but BIAB did a great job.
1 Teach me Lord, your ways, I am broken at your feet.
I’ve been lost and away, blinded by lies.
In your arms I return, you revive my weary heart.
Make me whole again, I’m a child of your grace.
Prechorus
I lose sight of all that you’ve done for me, all that you’ve done for me.
I’ll stand firm your kingdom is calling me, kingdom is calling me.
Chorus
You must increase, I must decrease, this emptiness only you complete.
Love is so real, it costs and it hurts, it empties us completely of self.
I seek to be all that the Father has made, an image of love, pure in my ways.
Your power is perfect, your grace is enough, from the desert I’m coming.

Coming back to life, woah-o-o-o-oh.
Coming back to life, woah-o-o-o-oh.
2 Help me speak your words, breath life into my bones.
Spirit take control, Jesus you’re my cornerstone.

Like a desert storm, blow into this room.
Kingdom language, the fire of Pentecost today
