I need you like a hurricane. Thunder crashing, wind, and rain.
To tear my walls down. I'm only yours now.
I need you like a burning flame. Wild fire untamed.
To burn these walls down. I'm only yours now.
"Therefore, O house of Israel, I will judge you, each one according to his ways, declares the Sovereign Lord. Repent! Turn away from all your offenses; then sin will not be your downfall. Rid yourselves of all the offenses you have committed, and get a new heart a new spirit. Why will you die, O house of Israel? For I take no pleasure in the death of anyone, declares the Sovereign Lord. Repent and Live!" Ezekiel 18.30-32.
Repent! Turn away! I've come to this conclusion, I need divine intervention in my life for that to happen. I try to turn away on my own. I try to stop habitually sinning but it seems to end in failure and despair. Sure I can acknowledge my sin, I can acknowledge that what I do is wrong, but I need Him to rescue me.
I have built a city here, half with pride and half with fear.
I just wanted a safer place to hide, I don't want to be safe tonight.
I need you like a hurricane, thunder crashing, wind and rain
To tear my walls down, I'm only yours now.
I need you like a burning flame, wild fire untamed.
To burn these walls down, I am only yours now.
I need Him to come wreck my life. I have built this 'grand city' like Israel did. I have made idols and worshiped them. I have chosen other gods. I need him to come burn these walls down. I desperately need His presence. In the depths of sin, only can He resurrect this body.
