Theocracy |
At the center of my heart there sits a throne |
That the rightful occupant’s not always |
Free to call His own |
For how can I give the King |
His place of worth above all else |
When I spend my time striving |
To place the crown upon myself? |
Battle cry, to engage |
For the war, set the stage |
And armies march and kings arise |
For the choice, the time has come |
Mine or thy will be done? |
And the pain reflects in holy eyes |
For the will to obey |
For the night to the day |
And the seasons change and rulers die |
Not of flesh, not of men |
Wage the war deep within |
On and on it rages undenied |
I TAKE MY CROWN AND CAST IT DOWN |
CASTLES BURNING |
CASTLES BURNING |
LEARN TO GROW, GROW TO BE |
A FLESH AND BLOOD THEOCRACY |
TO TAKE THE LOSS AND BEAR THE CROSS |
RAISE THE KINGDOM |
RAISE THE KINGDOM |
BURN AWAY ALL I’VE BEEN |
TO RESURRECT THEOCRACY WITHIN |
And the would-be rulers of my heart |
That I place upon the throne |
Each lead the kingdom of my life to ruin |
To bring every thought into submission |
To tear the idols down |
Is to break the chains, to rearrange |
To give the King his crown |
Battle cry, to engage |
For the war, set the stage |
And armies march and kings arise |
For the choice, the time has come |
Mine or thy will be done? |
And the pain reflects in holy eyes |
For the will to obey |
For the night to the day |
And the seasons change and rulers die |
Not of flesh, not of men |
Wage the war deep within |
On and on it rages undenied |
I TAKE MY CROWN AND CAST IT DOWN |
CASTLES BURNING |
CASTLES BURNING |
LEARN TO GROW, GROW TO BE |
A FLESH AND BLOOD THEOCRACY |
TO TAKE THE LOSS AND BEAR THE CROSS |
RAISE THE KINGDOM |
RAISE THE KINGDOM |
BURN AWAY ALL I’VE BEEN |
TO RESURRECT THEOCRACY WITHIN |
Father, use me to be your hands down here |
A mirror to reflect your glory into hurting eyes |
And let me see the world with vision clear |
And not through selfishness and lies |
For if I am consumed with my own cares |
What right have I to speak the words |
Thy Kingdom Come? |
And if I am consumed with my own will |
What right to pray Thy Will Be Done? |
As all round me I see bleeding souls |
Please give me strength to never pass them idly by |
And as the angry storm clouds start to roll |
May they see comfort in my eyes |
For just as you are full of mercy and love |
The same to others you have called me to be |
And by the covenant of grace above and below |
Within our souls: theocracy |
I TAKE MY CROWN AND CAST IT DOWN |
CASTLES BURNING |
CASTLES BURNING |
LEARN TO GROW, GROW TO BE |
A FLESH AND BLOOD THEOCRACY |
TO TAKE THE LOSS AND BEAR THE CROSS |
RAISE THE KINGDOM |
RAISE THE KINGDOM |
BURN AWAY ALL I’VE BEEN |
TO RESURRECT THEOCRACY WITHIN |
I TAKE MY CROWN AND CAST IT DOWN |
CASTLES BURNING |
CASTLES BURNING |
LEARN TO GROW, GROW TO BE |
A FLESH AND BLOOD THEOCRACY |
TO TAKE THE LOSS AND BEAR THE CROSS |
RAISE THE KINGDOM |
RAISE THE KINGDOM |
