The Gates Lyrics

Did You say, 'seek, you will surely find'?

I am searching, Lord turn Your eyes to mine

But I'm weary, pacing at these gates

Jesus come, come now, don't delay



Like a child, ever faithful may I be

This I ask, God of mercy hear my plea

I have wandered with a soul impure

For this scorn, Father, send a cure



I come to You my one and only

I promise not to turn my eyes again

And yes I know we're but a breath

But I wanna taste and see and feel You nonetheless

Yeah the years they keep on turning

And I'm battered but I'm burning for You Lord



I wanna wake and feel Your glory

I wanna speak in tongues of angels for You Lord

I wanna sing a song eternal

I wanna trample on the curses of the earth

I wanna call upon Your healing

I wanna see the sick and weary be made new

I wanna swim inside the blessings

I wanna swim inside the blessings of the Lord



Have my heart, dry and dusty though it be

And these lungs; tired from calling out to Thee

Will You come now and make Your home

May we drink the cup of life and overflow
