These Walls (Oh Lord)

These walls surround me,
I cant see beyond
Bright light and fresh breeze,
Both seem to be gone

These walls that I’ve built,
Aren’t even that strong
They all come down,
At first moment of wrong

But your house oh Lord,
has walls of mighty strength
My walls of the world,
yours of mercy and grace

Which house will I choose,
Of straw or of stone,
My own inhibitions,
Or your mighty throne.

Chorus:
I put my trust in thee (only you)
Tear down these walls for me (give me peace)
All that I cannot see (oh Lord)
Tear down these walls for me

When I look to your name
I realize jesus came
My debt to pay has seized
All part of his masterpiece

So I come to you in faith
Burdened by the task.
To break down these walls
That I have built to last,

Your spirit oh lord,
I pray that it would come,
And like a great wind,
Blow down what I have done

Strengthen with your spirit
Ground us in your love
For you have shown us this
In everything you’ve done

Its unpredictable
When stumbling blocks come
But the peace you leave me
Can only come from the son

Music and Lyrics written by Matt O'shea and Jordan Todd

- You have one that is powerful,
Like a destructive wind
He will throw down these walls,
And relieve me of my sin.
(Isaiah 28;2)
