My Desire
Yolanda Adams · More Than a Melody [1995]
Take away any desire in me that hurts You
Take away anything that stands between You and me
I want to be what You created me to be
It's my desire that You find favor in me
Lord, take away anything that displeases You
Take away any evil thought within me
Take away anything that proves to break Your heart
I want to be in sweet communion with You
It's my desire to do everything You want me to do
Lord, take away anything that displeases You
Remove all doubt, all insecurity
Erase all hate, all iniquity
Discard all the fear found deep within me
Lord, take away anything that displeases You
Take away Lord
Take away
Take away any desire in me that hurts You
Take it away
Take away anything that stands between You and me
I want to be what You created me to be
It's my desire that You find favor in me
Lord, take away anything that displeases You
Take away any evil thought within me
Take away anything that proves to break Your heart
I want to be in sweet communion with You
It's my desire to do everything You want me to do
Lord, take away anything that displeases You
Remove all doubt, all insecurity
Erase all hate, all iniquity
Discard all the fear found deep within me
Lord, take away anything that displeases You
Take away Lord
Take away
Take away any desire in me that hurts You
Take it away
