Increase Lyrics

I want to bear the image

Be made into Your likeness

Of a God who gave

His life for his friends

I want to give a pure heart

Search me and know me

Oh Jesus remove

All that's unholy

So you can take Your rightful

Place in my heart

You must increase

You must increase Lord

And I must decrease

You must increase

You must increase Lord

And I must decrease

Your grace always sufficient

Our weakness is human

But a humble heart

You will not deny

We have to go lower

Wide-eyed like children

To enter into

The kingdom of heaven

So won't you take Your rightful

Place in my heart

You must increase

You must increase Lord

And I must decrease

You must increase

You must increase Lord

And I must decrease

You must increase

You must increase Lord

And I must decrease

You must increase

You must increase Lord

And I must decrease

Lifted high

And seated in a holy place

You left Your throne

You went to the lowest place

Given for love

Your body broken for us

The bread and the cup

Poured out for love

Lifted high

And seated in a holy place

You left Your throne

You went to the lowest place

Given for love

Your body broken for us

The bread and the cup

Poured out for love

Lifted high

And seated in a holy place

You left Your throne

You went to the lowest place

Given for love

Your body broken for us

The bread and the cup

Poured out for love

You must increase

You must increase Lord

And I must decrease

You must increase

You must increase Lord

And I must decrease
