Only Love Remains


 

Scenes of you come rushing through
You are breaking me down
So break me into pieces
That will grow in the ground

 

I know that I deserve to die
For the murder in my heart
So be gentle with me Jesus
As you tear me apart

 

Please kill the liar
Kill the thief in me
You know that I am tired of their cruelty
Breathe into my spirit
Breathe into my veins
Until only love remains

 

You burn away the ropes that bind

And hold me to the earth
The fire only leaves behind whatever is of worth

I begin to see reality
For the first time in my life
I know that I’m a shadow
But I’m dancing in your light

 

Teach me to be humble
Call me from the grave
Show me how to walk with you upon the waves
Breathe into my spirit
Breathe into my veins
Until only love remains

 

This is my prayer today Jesus... be gentle as you tear me apart, kill the sin in me, burn it away, until only love remains.
