I've inquired bout' your love through the years.
I've often wondered why I'm here?
Finding consolation through my tears.
My one desire is to be more sincere.
Author of my blessed destiny, complete the work
That you've done begun in me, til' the day when I rest at your feet.
But until then, I rest within your peace.

(chorus)
And bless my soul, please bless my soul.
Bless my soul, please bless my soul,
I have come to far, now to let go. I can behold if you would
Bless my soul.

I have learned to let all ambitions go, in exchange
For the things you hold. So now wash me Lord
Now through and through, my heart will sing,
A song of gratitude so.....(chorus)

Repeat chorus again.
I can behold if you would bless my soul. (musical interlude follows)

Proclamation
Now more than anything, I need you just to bless my soul.(x2)
More than the money; I need you just to bless my soul.
Give me integrity, (thank you) I need you just to bless my soul.
Give me longevity (ooh Lord) I need you just to bless my soul.
Now more than anything Lord, I need you just to bless my soul.
Make me a better witness, I need you just to bless my soul.
I need your spirit, thank you, I need you to just bless my soul.
I need you, I need you, I need you Lord, I need thee to bless my soul!
