  • (Ooh)

    Ooh, I been stacking up the years I spent
    Trading punches with the enemy
    Ooh, built myself a double thick stone tower of lies
    Higher than the eye can see
    Trapped in my flesh and bone
    Crying out to You, Lord
    I'm desperate
    Love, come rattle this cage and set me free

    All of my fears like Jericho walls
    Gotta come down, come down
    All of my fears like Jericho walls
    Gotta come down, come down, oh Lord
    my prison turns to ruin
    When Your love moves in
    All of my fears like Jericho walls
    Gotta come down, come down, come down

    Ooh, truth was crashing through the pride and the blame
    Cutting straight to the heart of me
    Ooh, long before I ever called Your name
    You were fighting for my victory
    Carved in Your flesh and bone
    The wounds that have said my soul's forgiven
    Oh, now I can feel the darkness trembling

    All of my fears like Jericho walls
    Gotta come down, come down
    All of my fears like Jericho walls
    Gotta come down, come down, oh Lord
    my prison turns to ruin
    When Your love moves in
    All of my fears like Jericho walls
    Gotta come down, come down, come down

    Rebuild me from the ground up
    All I wanna see is You
    Terrify the lies with truth

    All of my fears like Jericho walls
    Gotta come down, come down
    All of my fears like Jericho walls
    Gotta come down, come down
    Oh, Lord, my prison turns to ruin
    When Your love moves in
    All of my fears like Jericho walls
    Gotta come down, come down, come down

    All of my fears gotta come down
    Jericho walls, gotta come down, come down, come down Writer/s: Andrew Ripp, Ethan Hulse
