You said it. We believe it. Come!

[The pre-requisite of saying this prayer 'Come', as I later come to realise, is a divine dissatisfaction that only God can put in open hearts. For how can one ask of God's presence to come unless 1. We know that it's what God says He'll do 2. We are totally dissatisfied, utterly inconsolable until His Word comes to pass...]

You said You would come
And so we wait
You said You would break in
And so we tarry in expectation

We lay hold of Your promise
And seek You early in the morning
We lift up our heads to You
And sing a new song to You late in the night

You said You would come
We believe... Selah
You said You would break in
So we press in with one accord

Casting off every weight
And sin that so easily entangles
Running this race
Fixing our eyes on Jesus

When we grow weary and faint
When we lose sight of You in the waiting
He who holds the seven stars in His hands
Holds our hearts

Ever Faithful
Ever True
This shall be my confidence
You said it, we believe it

Come, Holy Spirit, come
Break in
Why not now
Why not here

Come like You've never come before
Let Your glory fall
Let Your presence come and bear fruit
And not return to You void

Until the day breaks
And the shadows flee away
I will go my way to the mountain of myrrh
And to the hill of frankincense..
