Lord, burn it down - May the Lord Studio (Official music video)

“Lord, Burn It Down” True surrender is not asking God to improve the kingdom we built for ourselves. It is giving Him permission to tear it down. Our reputation, comfort, plans, titles and applause mean nothing if they keep us from becoming more like Christ. Sometimes the most honest prayer is not “Lord, bless what I built.” It is: “Lord, burn it down.” 🎶 May The Lord Studio Gospel Rap • Worship • Prayer Music Lyrics: If it isn’t You Burn it down If it steals Your glory Burn it down Leave nothing standing That You didn’t build I built an altar to approval Called it purpose, called it passion Every brick was made from pride, but I disguised it as compassion Had a Bible in my hands while I was building my own throne Wanted everybody’s eyes while saying, “God and God alone” I memorized the words, but never let them cut me open Sang about surrender while my hands were tightly closed in I wanted resurrection without dying to myself Wanted Heaven on my lips while I kept worshipping my health My comfort, my ambition, my position, my applause Funny how the loudest idol usually sounds like us Search every motive Open every room If there’s anything That competes with You Burn it down Every idol Burn it down Every title Burn it down Every kingdom That I built without Your name Burn it down Every secret Burn it down Every reason Leave nothing standing Till only Jesus Remains Don’t spare my reputation if it keeps me from repentance Don’t protect my image if it builds another prison Tear apart the version of myself that I’ve defended If it doesn’t look like Christ, then let its story finally end here Put the cross where I put comfort Put Your will above my own Teach me how to lose the things that never should have been my home Let obedience be louder than the thousand lies I trust If my heart is still divided, bring the holy fire, God Take my future Take my plans Take my trophies Take my hands Take the dreams I never gave Nothing hidden Nothing saved Lord Burn it Burn it down Burn it down Till my pride Becomes worship Burn it down Till my fear Becomes faith Burn it down Till my name Means nothing And Yours Means everything Burn it down Burn it down Burn it down Until all they see Is Christ
