FLOODGATES LYRICS

1. A Bride, Not A Building

Lion of Judah roar!
Bring in a new wave of deliverance
A fresh outpouring of Your Spirit

The Lord has brought us to such a time as this, a season of preparation
Awaken the watchmen, awaken the warriors, awaken His bride
An outpouring is on the horizon, and the flame of revolution is in our hearts
Your spirit is His!

Share in the blessed communion, adopt reformation as a way of life
You were meant for each other!

Power was meant to course through your spiritual veins
Light to flow from your eyes and out of every pore
A sword is your inheritance and glory is your birthright
Open your heart not just to let him in but to let yourself out

Wake up! Get out of your seat, and stop clinging to the corpse of tradition
Stop going to pay your respects to a wretched counterfeit of Christ and start celebrating the Living God!

Prepare, the Lord is alive and He is here! worship the Lord!

With dance and song! clashing cymbals and waves, stringed instruments and wind through the trees, a shout From his people and the cries from the stone of the earth!

Hosanna! Hosanna in the highest!

2. Decadence

To the God in which i believe not just some fairy-tale
The one who answered me in power and revealed Himself
To You my God i lift up my life, body and soul
And to this world festering in filth
I will feel no remorse to leave you but while im here mark these words

I DENY YOU!
I DENY YOU!
I DENY YO-O-U-U!
I DENY YOU!

And your wicked ways
From this day forth you have my hate
Your desires disgust me and your designs are frail
Building churches of flesh and bone, susceptible to rot and decay

Feel the foundations start to crumble, sensing your demise
Let the walls collapse, this is the day perversion dies
Let it die

Oh God, how i love You! And i will bless You forever for what You have done!
Oh wicked world, how i hate you! And i will never forgive you for what you have become!

3. Apprehension

You say to those who will listen
Seek me and you will find me
I'm not calling you a liar but i feel so lost

I cant feel you
And youre no where to be seen
Your voice is all but silent

I tell myself that its a test
But i dont believe that
I'm being honest when i say
I don't know where you are
Or if there's even anything to find if i were to look for you

But something tells me that youre there
I couldn't let go if i wanted to
You're always on my mind
You're ways are constantly the object of my comparison

How can you not exist if i can cling to you so
But how can you be omnipresent and yet i cant feel you surrounding me

I don't know what to do but i need peace
And if that comes from You, Jesus the one who is said to possess peace that surpasses understanding

If your yoke is easy and your burden is light
Then my soul needs your rest, my spirit thirsts for something more
Your word offers living water and a house with an open door

Only of the son of a living and mighty god will let me know that you are there

I am waiting for you

Surpass what i have come to know and understand
Show me something real
I need love
