What is this

That I feel deep inside

That keeps setting my soul afire

Whatever it is

Whatever it is

Whatever it is

It won't let me

Hold my peace

What is this

That makes people say I'm mad and strange

What is this

That makes me want to run on in Jesus' name

Whatever it is

Whatever it is

Whatever it is

It won't let me

Hold my peace

It makes me love all my enemies

And it makes me love my friends

And it won't let me be ashamed

To tell the world that I've been born again

OOOOH! What is this!

What is this

That makes me do right when I would do wrong

What is this

When I'm down low, it gives me a song

Whatever it is

Whatever it is

Whatever it is

It won't let me

Hold my peace

It makes me love all my enemies

And it makes me love my friends

And it won't let me be ashamed

To tell the world that I've been born again

OOOOH! What is this!
