let me see your face, god
Singer:cory asbury
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
drawn to the one whose eyes burn with desire
i've burned all my bridges
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
offering my life as a holy sacrifice
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
open up my eyes to see your beauty
i wanna see you in your splendor
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
i've been awakened to love and can't move my gaze
though the floods roll my way and the waters
your love cannot be quenched
you're the lion and the lamb
my eyes have been enlightened with these words that i've been told
you become what you behold
your face i'll seek until my heart is yours
show me the hope of your calling
cover the earth with your glory like the waters to the seas
it's only in you that i'm free
one thing i have desired and it's you alone i seek
open up my eyes to see your beauty
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
the spirit and the bride to say come"
