Love built this house long ago / Gave it a beauty all its own / And it was warm
and free and welcoming / But I learned to hide amid the rooms / Till slowly it
became the tomb / Where I have shut away the light of day./
Bridge
1: Now I'm longing to be known / Will you come and move this stone.
Chorus:
Let the door swing wide and the walls come down / Don't let me hide where I'll
never be found / I have been so blind, but I want
to see / Call the darkness out let the sun come in / Breath life into these rooms
again / And I'll let / the door swing wide.
Each
storm that came, I lost heart. Traded the welcome mat for iron bars / Pretended
I was not falling apart / Who did I think I would fool? / How could I ever hide
from You / For this is Your home, too, and so You know./
Bridge 2: That what's out there is my worst fear / But I'm tired of the view from
here.
Chorus:
Hook:
And it may take a mighty blow / To free me from what binds me so / I don't mind,
cause it's time / I just wanna see the light.
Chorus:
