Revival
I love You, Jesus
You're all that I have
You told me about the call that I had
And You told me to preach the Gospel 'til the day I die
And every day I've tried
And You've been with me when everyone left me
But this weight of preaching the Gospel is hefty
And when I can't carry it, You pull me up
And when I fall, You hold me up
You're the reason my heart beats and my lungs breathe
You told me You loved me and You would never leave me
You never lied to me
And when I've sinned, You've cried for me
You just want my heart, even more than my ministry
And You protect me from my enemies
And You lift me up, and You hold me close
And I understand now the Cross is the only thing that I can boast
But that was my cross, and those were my whips
And when Judas kissed You, those were my lips
I'm just another Peter who's denied You
I've pulled You out when it's convenient, and other times I've tried to hide You
I'm a coward, and I need You
Thank God this heart of mine isn't see through
Because sometimes, I'm sure people wouldn't even see You
They'd just see my sin
I'm so often a God-less boy among Godly men
Years of ministry, and sometimes my spiritual depth is oddly thin
And I hate it, and I'm ashamed of it
I remember every sin, but You don't recall the name of it
You've forgave me from the east to the west
You still loved me at my lowest when my life was a mess
You are Jesus, and all I can do is praise You
You never let my disobedience phase You
It's like You were immune to my mutiny
I'm amazed at all You do for me
You are the lion of Judah
You are the God of Muhammad, Confucius, and Buddha
There is none like You, Jesus, You are the King
And every gift from You is a good gift that You bring
Every morning, I see the mist of Your springs
And I get baptized in the winds of Your wings
So blow, Spirit, blow, and move like You've never moved before
Bring revival across the plains and shore to shore
We want more, we want more, we want more
You are the protector of our faith
You are the track that we race
We count it a joy for the attacks that we take
Persecuted overseas, lashes and stakes
Your childrens' passion is great
So lift us up and push us forward
We're just knock, knock, knocking on Heaven's door
And we're just walking these steps until we get to the top
The world can hate us, but we won't stop
I'm in this fight to give it everything I've got
You are the planet-namer and the star-hanger
We live this love in this world of anger
And You rescue us from the dominions of danger
We need You, Jesus, we love You, Lord
It's Your fame that we're fighting for
So they can kill us, and they can hate us
But by the power of God, they're never gonna break us
