There is a silent war that is raging deep within me
My lower nature fights to dominate
My spirit man is poised and locked in battle
With the carnal side of me I have grown to hate
The trumpet of my prayers play toward heaven
With a voice of desperation in my cry
Lord strengthen me that I might not yield myself to sin
But keep your righteous banner lifted high
Lord I hunger for holiness
And I thirst for the righteousness that is Yours
That my mind would be cleansed
And my spirit renewed
And this temple that you dwell in would be pure
Yes Lord
Yes Lord
Oh yes Lord
The tempter stalks about me as a lion
Searching for the slightest scent of blood
For when the skin of my resistance is broken
He moves in swiftly to deepen the cut
Oh Lord of all creation hear your servant
You understand the weaknesses of man
I am counting myself crucified with Jesus
Alive to Christ and dead indeed to sin
Lord I hunger for holiness
And I thirst for the righteousness that is Yours
That my mind would be cleansed
And my spirit renewed
And this temple that you dwell in would be pure
Yes Lord
Yes Lord
Oh yes Lord
Touch me Lord
Yeah
Touch me Lord
Oh
Touch me Lord
My soul says yes
Yes
Yes
Reach down and touch me Lord
Oh
My soul says yes
