Stir up Your Spirit || 2009.11.05

Stir up Your Spirit Lord
as You walk among us
Flood out Your compassion
and let it move through us
a raging torrent
Pour out like light
from the sun after dawn
that sharpens the earth
and stirs it awake
And shines bright
in every dewdrop
every crystal of ice
And stirs the living to life

Stir up Your Spirit Lord
as You rise up among us
Reveal Your majesty
and the salvation by Your hands
Open the floodgates of Eternity
Where this moment melts away
And draw in those
whose friendship You hunger for
Return Your song to the silent
Your face before those
who have turned themselves away

Stir up Your Spirit Lord
Your Glory rise among us
that all would know Your hope
And not escape the Voice of Your Calling
The destiny that stands eternal
Even Seraph in their burning cannot fathom
the depth of desire
the drawing of God and each heart
fashioned to beat together
chosen to dwell with one another
that eternity would glow with fire
and fully erupt in light of glory
