Em
I remember the heights,
     Esus4                   Em

All the hunger and longing, I remember the fire,

Of Your Spirit upon me,
          Am
And how I moved with Your Heart,
   C
Oh come now restore me.

So here is my heart,

Come and have its way fully,
     Em
Till righteousness flows,

Completely consumes me.
