Oh Lord Refresh My Soul

Oh God refresh my soul

I feel so alone and lost
So suffocated by my sorrows
I want to get on my knees and pray
But these tears are blinding me
There is a hole in my heart...
Only you Lord can fill

Oh Lord refresh my soul
I know I am a sinner but I come 
before you to cleanse my heart
Do not let my enemies overcome me
Do not let me fall into the devil's trap
Protect me Lord; without you my 
ways are lost
Be the engineer of my life
Oh Lord refresh my soul

I am broken and my heart is heavy
Mend me Lord with your love
I cry to you father to refresh my soul
This weight is too much on my small 
head.

Forgive me for my countless sins
Although I don't deserve your 
forgiveness but Lord find it in your 
heart to discharge a blessing my 
way
I am lost without you.
All that I am begging for is for you 
Lord to visit my soul again and 
refresh it.
