Uphold Me

[Chorus: Marvin Winans & The Winans]
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
He said, He said, He said
Uphold me with thy free spirit
(Whatever you do)
Whatever you do, Lord, don't take your joy from me
(Hey, hey, uphold me)
Uphold me with thy free spirit
(And whatever you do)
Whatever you do, Lord, don't take your joy from me

[Verse 1: Marvin Winans]
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: The Winans & Marvin Winans]
Uphold me with thy free spirit
(Oh, whatever you do)
Whatever you do, Lord, don't take your joy from me
(Hey, uphold me)
Uphold me with thy free spirit
(And whatever you do, Lord)
Whatever you do, Lord, don't take your joy from me

[Verse 2: Marvin Winans]
Create in me a clean heart
And renew the right spirit in me
And I'll teach transgressors Your way
Sinners shall be converted unto Thee

[Chorus: The Winans & Marvin Winans]
Uphold me with thy free spirit
(Lord, whatever you)
Whatever you do, Lord, don't take your joy from me
(Don't take your joy from me, Lord)
Uphold me with thy free spirit
(Lord, I need you, whatever you do)
Whatever you do, Lord, don't take your joy from me

[Outro: Marvin Winans & The Winans]
