I learned this song while working at a Mennonite summer camp. I have no idea who sings it in the attached Youtube video.

Lord, prepare me to be a sanctuary

 5    6 -5 -5    4   -4  5 -5 5 -4
Pure and holy, tried and true

for You 

It is you, Lord 
Who came to save 
The heart and soul 
Of every man 
It is you Lord 
who knows my weakness 
Who gives me strength, 
With thine own hand. 

Lord prepare me to be a sanctuary 
Pure and Holy, tried and true 
With thanksgiving I'll be a living 
Sanctuary for you 

Lead Me on Lord 
From temptation 
Purify me 
From within 
Fill my heart with 
You holy spirit 
Take away all my sin 

Lord prepare me to be a sanctuary 
Pure and holy, tried and true 
With thanksgiving, I'll be a living 
Sanctuary for You
