(written by Frederick Manns, Marvin Winnans, and Ronald Winnans)
(recorded by Lisa McClendon)


Chorus:
Uphold me with Thy free Spirit;
whatever You do,
Lord, don't take Your joy from me.

Uphold me with Thy free Spirit;
whatever You do,
Lord, don't take Your joy from me.

Verse 1:
Cast me not away from Thy presence,
don’t take Your Holy Spirit away from me.
Make me to hear joy and gladness,
I wanna be able to rejoice with Thee.

Chorus

Verse 2:
Create in me a clean heart,
renew a right Spirit within me.
And I'll teach transgressors Your ways,
and sinners shall be converted unto Thee.

Chorus

Vamp:
Uphold me, mold me,
shape me, make me;
whatever You do,
Lord, don't take Your joy from me.

Anoint me, appoint me,
choose me, use me;
whatever You do,
Lord, don't take Your joy from me.

Rebuke me, reprove me,
chastise me, Lord, revive me;
whatever You do,
Lord, don't take Your joy from me.

Ending:
Whatever You do,
Lord, don't take Your joy from me.
