Lyrics

Restore in me the joys of my salvation
Take me back to where it all began
Where all I ever wanted was Your presence
How I long to be there once again
Light a fire
That the world can’t burn out
Fan the flame
Till nothing between us remains
My life is an altar to You
Breathe again
On the embers that burn in my heart
A love taken back to the start
My life is an altar to You
Renew in me a pure and willing spirit
Take me back to where it all began
Before it all became so complicated
Yeah, how I long to be there once again
Light a fire
That the world can’t burn out
Fan the flame
Till nothing between us remains
My life is an altar to You
Breathe again
On the embers that burn in my heart
A love taken back to the start
My life is an altar to You
God, I’m sorry
Please forgive me
For when I’ve gone cold
Lord, I need you
How I need you
To awake my soul
Light a fire
That the world can’t burn out
Fan the flame
Till nothing between us remains
My life is an altar to You
Yeah
Breathe again
On the embers that burn in my heart
A love taken back to the start
My life is an altar to You
And all the earth will shout Your praise
Our hearts will cry, these bones will sing
Great are You Lord
Oh, You are
All the earth will shout Your praise
Our hearts will cry, these bones will sing
Great are You Lord
Oh, You are
All the earth will shout Your praise
Our hearts will cry, these bones will sing
Great are You Lord
It’s Your breath in our lungs
So, we pour out our praise
Pour out our praise
It’s Your breath in our lungs
So, we pour out our praise to You only
It’s Your breath in our lungs
So, we pour out our praise
Pour out our praise
It’s Your breath in our lungs
So, we pour out our praise to You only
Great (Are You Lord)
Oh You are, yeah
Great are You Lord
It’s Your breath
It’s Your breath in our lungs
So, we pour out our praise
Pour out our praise
It’s Your breath in our lungs
So, we pour out our praise to You only
Oh, we praise You Father
Oh, we praise You Father
Oh, we praise You Father
God, I’m sorry
Please forgive me
For when I’ve gone cold
Lord, I need you
How I need you
To awake my soul
Awake my spirit, God
Come awake my spirit, God
Oh awake my spirit
Awake my spirit, God
