Father, help me please live a life free from sin
When I'm doing You wrong, I'm hurtin' within
Even though we've walked together for just a few years
Sometimes I go right with this world while my heart is crying out for Yours

[Chorus]
I've got to bury the old man - Got to bury him now
For my people 'here to listen', let the new man abound
Let the new man abound, (let the new man abound)
(Let the new man abound)

Early in the morning, I'd rather sleep in than pray
At night, I find myself watchin' that ole' TV instead of readin' what Your Word has to say
Oh Lord, I don't talk to my friends about You much anymore
I'm afraid they won't think that I'm cool, than my 'God' who I stand for

[repeat chorus]

If I really love You like I say I do
I'd stop just living for myself - I'd start living my life for You
So that they'll know that I really love You (...I really love You...) not just by what I say
But they'll know that I really love You by the things I do every day

[repeat chorus]
