[Verse 1]
Am Em
Lord, take control of me,

Renew my mind and help me see

That the fullness of Your life
D7 Dm
And love are mine to share.
Am Em
Make me a channel of

Your saving grace and cleansing blood;
Dm Am
Make my life a shelter for
Fmaj7 C
A brother in despair.
[Chorus]
Gm Csus4
Release me into the current
Fmaj7 Dm
Of Your Spirit’s pow’r,
Am D7
And fill me each moment

Of the day and ev’ry hour.

Am Em
Lord, take complete control

Of my body, mind, and soul;

When I face each trial and test,

So that You may manifest

Yourself to all the world.
[Chorus]

Release me into the current
