Let Me See Your Face, God

Simple men are simply drawn to simplicity

My simple mind has come to find that I'm drawn to infinity

Breaking the barriers and barricades only to see your face

My eyes have caught a glimpse and I just can't turn away

I'm drawn to the flame, drawn to the fire,

Drawn to the one whose eyes burn with desire

I've burned all my bridges, God, I've counted the cost

So shine your light until I'm blind to this world and its lies

So the windows of my soul are purified just like your bride:

Spotless and white, no blemish in sight

Offering my life as a holy sacrifice

I need you, Christ, to ascend that holy hill

So give me clean hands, a pure heart, the knowledge of your will

As the war rolls on and the battle rages here I take my stand

'Cause I know one day I'll stand before you in the holy land

Let me see your face, God

I'm crying out for you

(I'm crying out, I'm crying out for you)

Open up my eyes to see your beauty, God

(Open up my eyes, open up my eyes, open up my eyes)

Whoa, whoa

I wanna see you in your splendor, behold you in your glory

Gaze upon the beauty that burns bright before me

There's not a god whose eyes flicker with flames of jealousy

Whose desire is towards me, never ignores me

I've been awakened to love and can't move my gaze

Though the floods roll my way and the waters, they rage

Your love cannot be quenched, hindered or encaged

You're the lion and the lamb, fully God, fully man

My eyes have been enlightened with these words that I've been told

You become what you behold, Holy Spirit, take control

When my flesh is weak, your face I'll seek until my heart is yours

Show me the hope of your calling, who I am in you, my Lord

Cover the earth with your glory like the waters to the seas

You've ravished my heart, it's only you I see

It's only in you that I'm free, come and liberate me

One thing I have desired and it's you alone I seek

Let me see your face, God

I'm crying out for you

(I'm crying out, I'm crying out for you)

Open up my eyes to see your beauty, God

(Open up my eyes, open up my eyes, open up my eyes)

Whoa, whoa

[x2]

Whoa, whoa whoa, whoa whoa, whoa

Blessed are the pure in heart that fight the good fight

Who leave it all behind to lay ahold of the prize

Eagerly awaiting the return of the Christ

It's all we're longing for, we're waiting for

The Spirit and the Bride to say "Come"

[x2]

Let me see your face, God

I'm crying out for you

(I'm crying out, I'm crying out for you)

Open up my eyes to see your beauty, God

(Open up my eyes, open up my eyes, open up my eyes)

Whoa, whoa
