Longing

Take me apart from the inside out
Search me with holy eyes
Rip out all my selfishness
Bring me to Your side.
My heart breaks for You
Come into this place where souls are dead
Release new life upon them
My chest aches with tears unshed.
I’ll lift my head up to the sky
And praise Your name forever
I hope You’ll always hear my cry
For love, nothing can sever.
Draw me to Yourself, Lord
I’ll stay true to Your name
I’ll raise my voice in song and praise
And never bring You shame.
Your beauty surpasses everything
I ever thought as lovely
Now I truly see today
Your real vision of me.
Breathe new life into this place
Break every heart that beats
So they might finally know You
And so they might believe.
