These walls of self protection
Seem safe for a time
But the prison prison cell
soon grows cold
Beyond the will to survive
What's on the other side?
There is no freedom in the old
Do not love the darkness more than light
The wisdom of Man can cloud our eyes
Be not of this world
Seek the priceless pearl
Holy Spirit invade our lives
Come now King of glory
Arise and tell the story
Of a love that's never failing
And a hope that will prevail when
Darkness blinds our eyes
Come now reign in power
Consume and devour
All pride and false pretension
Don't hide in self deception
Come now heavenly light
Come now King of glory
Facing fear and denial
Rejecting blame and doubt
When good intentions fail
All heaven cries out
Arise from your slumber
In the name of the Lord
Humbled and hungry for more
Do not love the darkness more than light
The wisdom of Man and earthly ties
Be not of this world
Seek the priceless pearl
Holy Spirit invade our lives
Come now King of glory
Arise and tell the story
Of a love that's never failing
And a hope that will prevail when
Darkness blinds our eyes
Come now reign in power
Consume and devour
All pride and false pretension
Don't hide in self deception
Come now heavenly light
Come now King of glory
