Let the Strongholds Fall

This is a song I wrote (too bad I cannot sing it for you) when Mel and I were praying about the strongholds in our lives.  Although I have written many poems, I have not put actual music to them in about 21 years.  However, when I was praying alone, the words and music just poured out of me and I wrote this in about five minutes.

 

Let the Strongholds Fall

 

Let the strongholds fall,

Let the storm be still,

Let the heavens call,

Lord, we’ll do Your will.

 

Let the trumpet sound,

Let the angels sing,

Let the enemy be bound,

Let Your fire rain.

 

Lord, we hear Your voice,

We will worship You,

And with all our hearts,

Let our praise be true.

 

Let Your Spirit come

Purify our hearts,

May our hands be clean

As we bow our knees.

 

Lord, we seek Your face,

Lord we humbly pray,

May You send us out,

Let us work Your fields

 

Let the strongholds fall,

Let the storm be still,

Let the heavens call,

Lord, we’ll do Your will.

 

Let the trumpet sound,

Let the angels sing,

Let the enemy be bound,

Let Your fire rain.
