My faith is old, my heart is hard, my prayers are cold, and I know how I
ought to be alive to you and dead to me.
Oh, what can be done for an old heart like mine?
Soften it up with oil and wine.
The oil is you, your spirit of love.
Please wash me in you, in the wine of your blood.
Let's sing it together to the Lord.
Close your eyes and sing it to Jesus.
Unless your heart is not hard, and your eyes are not dry, and your
prayers are not cold, and your faith is not old, otherwise that just about means
all of us, doesn't it?
My eyes are dry, my eyes are dry, faith is old, my faith is old,
heart is hard, my heart is hard, my prayers are cold, my prayers are cold,
and I know how, and I know how I ought to be, I ought to be alive to you,
alive to you, and dead to me, and dead to me.
Oh, what can be done for an old heart like mine?
Soften it up with oil and wine.
The oil is you, your spirit of love.
Please wash me in you, in the wine of your blood.
The wine of your blood.
Let's just sing it out loud to the Lord with all our hearts.
And break down before him.
The Lord says, draw near to God and he will draw near to you.
Cleanse your hands, you sinners.
Purify your hearts, you double-minded.
Mourn, weep, be miserable.
Let your laughter be turned into mourning, your joy into gloom.
Pour the anointing of God out upon all of us, God, so that we can be a pleasing
people.
My eyes are dry, my faith is old, my heart is hard, my prayers are cold,
and I know how I ought to be alive.
What can be done for an old heart like mine?
Soften it up with oil and wine.
The oil is you, your spirit of love.
Please wash me in you, in the wine of your blood.
My faith is old, my heart is hard, my prayers are cold,
and I know how I ought to be alive.
Well,
every head is bowed and every eye is closed.
Lord Jesus, you know how weak I am, Lord.
God, that my motives, Lord, needed to be purified today, Jesus.
My heart's so wicked, Lord.
Work, despite me, Lord, despite all of us, work.
Send your spirit, despite our wickedness, God.
We cry out for your Holy Spirit to fall upon us, God.
Everybody in this place that feels that God has been speaking specifically about
them, raise your hand.
Specifically about them, be honest.
As we sing this next song together, I'd like those people to open the curtains
so we have more room down here, please.
I'd like those of you that feel you need to come and commit your life to Jesus as
Lord, possibly for the first time in your life, those of you who have not been
living a right life before God, you've had bitterness in your heart,
you've had sin on your hands, and God wants you to come to the fountain and wash
it clean in true repentance, true faith, and true holiness.
Come to a holy God and become a holy people.
