Spirit and Truth

Lyrics

Written by Carl Hicks Jr.

Worship You in Spirit and Truth

[Intro]

Not just with my mouth
Not just with my song
Lord, I give You worship
With my whole heart involved

[Verse 1]

I don’t want performance
I don’t want empty sound
I don’t want lifted hands
With my heart still proud

I want worship that is honest
Worship that is clean
Worship that says yes
When nobody else can see

John four and twenty-four
Says God is Spirit and truth
So Lord, I bring my whole heart
And lay it down for You

[Chorus]

I worship You in spirit
I worship You in truth
Not just with my words, Lord
But with all I do

I lift my hands before You
I lay my heart down too
I worship You in spirit
And in truth

[Verse 2]

Search me while I’m singing
Clean me while I pray
Don’t let me leave Your presence
With my heart the same way

If there’s anything hidden
That doesn’t look like You
Put Your finger on it, Lord
And make my worship true

I’m not here for feelings
I’m not here for fame
I’m here to meet the Father
And bless Your holy name

[Chorus]

I worship You in spirit
I worship You in truth
Not just with my words, Lord
But with all I do

I lift my hands before You
I lay my heart down too
I worship You in spirit
And in truth

[Bridge]

Take my heart
Take my will
Take my plans
And make them still

Take my pride
Take my fear
I just want
To meet You here

[Vamp]

In spirit
In truth
Lord, I worship You

In spirit
In truth
Lord, I worship You

Not just Sunday
Not just songs
All my life
All day long

[Outro]

Not just with my mouth
Not just with my song
Lord, I give You worship
With my whole heart involved
