Clean Heart lyrics by Bryan and Katie Torwalt

Renowned worship leaders and songwriters Bryan & Katie Torwalt released a brand new song, "Clean Heart" today. This marks the husband and wife duo's first release outside of Jesus Culture since 2010. Listen to "Clean Heart" here.

“After writing this song from our hearts to the Lord with our friends Hank Bentley and Austin Johnson over two years ago, we finally have finished it and can’t wait to share it with you guys," share the Torwalts. "It’s not been an easy one, guys, and to warn you, this one might bring a tear or two as the kindness of God leads us to repentance."

The Towalts have helped usher listeners into worship since their debut album in 2011. Since then, the duo has released impactful songs such as the GRAMMY® Award-winning song "Holy Spirit," "When You Walk Into The Room," their No. 1 radio song "Miracle In The Works," and "My Hallelujah." Their 2022 release, I've Got Good News, marked the couple's first-ever live recorded album, which produced the well-received song "Sound Mind."

Clean Heart lyrics by Bryan and Katie Torwalt

VERSE 1

For the times

That I’ve misused Your name

And leveraged it for my own fame

For the kingdoms I’ve been building

On my own

For the times I chose

To play it safe

When You said give it all away

For the idols

That I’ve let into my home

CHORUS

Create in me a clean heart God

And renew a right Spirit

Renew a right Spirit within me

Create in me a clean heart God

And renew a right Spirit

Renew a right Spirit within me

VERSE 2

For the times

I chose the counterfeit

Dismissed Your voice like Jonah did

When I leaned into fear

Instead of faith

For the narrow path I didn’t take

When I fell short in my own strength

You said look

And I just looked away

Well I’m looking now

CHORUS

Create in me a clean heart God

And renew a right Spirit

Renew a right Spirit within me

Create in me a clean heart God

And renew a right Spirit

Renew a right Spirit within me

TAG

Renew a right Spirit

A right Spirit within me

BRIDGE 1

The kindness of God it

It leads to repentance

The arms of the Father

Are full of forgiveness

BRIDGE 2

You gave me a clean heart

A place where Your glory can rest

You made me a temple

A place where Your presence can live
