Fire from Heaven
Verse 1:
On the mount where prophets stand,
A challenge cast across the land.
God of truth versus worldly lies,
Under open, watchful skies.
Chorus:
Lord, we call, send Your fire from above,
Manifest Your power, manifest Your love.
On our nation, let Your glory fall,
In Your truth, we surrender all.
Verse 2:
Idols stand in arrogance,
Blind to their own ignorance.
One true God, reveal Your might,
In Your fire, set us right.
Chorus:
Lord, we call, send Your fire from above,
Manifest Your power, manifest Your love.
On our nation, let Your glory fall,
In Your truth, we surrender all.
Bridge:
As Elijah called and heaven heard,
So we stand on Your holy Word.
In the face of doubt, in the face of scorn,
Let Your fire on us be born.

Lord, we call, send Your fire from above,
Manifest Your power, manifest Your love.
On our nation, let Your glory fall,
In Your truth, we surrender all.
