Renovate - Brandon Sharp Remix by Lorenzo O Jackson: A Prayer for Transformation


"Renovate - Brandon Sharp Remix" is an upbeat & fun version of the song "Renovate" by Lorenzo O. Jackson. The lyrics are inspired by a prayer from Psalm 139:23–24, that alls us to align our thoughts and actions with God's will and ask God to shape us into His vision and use us to build His Kingdom. 

Lorenzo O Jackson - Renovate - Brandon Sharp RemixThe song came to life after Lorenzo felt prompted one day in 2022 while driving by a house that was being renovated. The Lord impressed upon his heart that renovation was what he needed in his life. He took out his phone and started singing the lyric, "I can't stay the same, Renovate me." The lyrics evolved, but the theme remained: "Here I am, Lord, Renovate me." More than 2 years later, he shared this with his old college friend Brandon Sharp, who shared a similar story, and they created a song that has you dancing and reflecting on how God can rebuild our hearts. Their collaboration proved to be a perfect fit, as they completed the song's writing, recording, mixing, and mastering within a mere 20 days! 

May this song help you to admit your brokenness and the need for God's mercy to build something new. May the lyrics, such as "Change my heart, change my mind; here I am Lord, renovate me", help you to give God full authority in your life so that He can renovate you in ways that bring you closer to Christ. Surrender, and let Him renovate your life and tear all the walls down that you've built up.

(Related scripture: Psalm 138:23-24; Psalm 51:10; Romans 12:2; Ezekiel 36:26)
