Know My Heart

[Verse 1]
Why do I pray? Do I pray to say I prayed an hour?
Why do I love? Do I want you beholden to me?
And why do I help? Do I help to hear my name called out?
And why do I sing?

[Chorus]
Search me and know my heart, O God
See there is any wrong thing in me
All I have ever really wanted
Are clean hands and a pure heart

[Interlude]
Why, why, why, why?

[Verse 2]
Why do I give? Do I give so I will get a blessing?
Why do I praise? Do I praise to do the right thing?
And why do I serve? Do I serve so others will serve me?
And why do I sing?

[Chorus]
Search me and know my heart, O God
See there is any wrong thing in me
All I have ever really wanted
Are clean hands and a pure heart

[Interlude]
Oh
Ooh
Oh, I wanna stand
[?]
I wanna be, I wanna be, I wanna be, I wanna be
[?]
I'll hope and stand in the presence of the Lord
And with clean hands
Oh, I wanna stand in the presence of the Lord
I need a pure heart
I wanna be clean

[Chorus]
Search me and know my heart, O God
See there is any wrong thing in me
All I have ever really wanted
Are clean hands and a pure heart
Clean hands and a pure heart
Clean hands and a pure heart

[Outro]
Mm-hmm, ohh
Oh, why?
Why, why, why?
Do-do-do-do-ooh
Do-oo-do-do-do
Ba-da-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba
Search me, Lord
In my heart
In my ways
See there is any anxious thought in me
And lead me in the way everlasting
