Heaven Come Down Lyrics

OH, HEAVEN COME DOWN TONIGHT
WE WANNA SEE YOUR GLORY SHINE
BURNIN" LIKE A FLAME, BURNIN" LIKE A FLAME FOREVER
I am broken
Nothin" I can do
I"m callin" out to You
Bringin" You a heart that"s open
Come and light a fire
Come and light a fire

In this moment
Hear me cryin" out
I"m reachin" for You now
Bringin" You a heart that"s open
And broken

OH, HEAVEN COME DOWN TONIGHT
WE WANNA SEE YOUR GLORY SHINE
BURNIN" LIKE A FLAME, BURNIN" LIKE A FLAME FOREVER
BREAK EVERY STRONGHOLD
SHATTER EVERY WALL SO WE CAN SEE
HEAVEN COME DOWN TONIGHT

Oh, we are broken
Here before You now
God we"re cryin" out
Bringing You a heart that"s open
Come and light a fire
Come and light a fire

Like an ocean
Washin" over us
Strong and glorious
Your love has spoken
And our hearts are open
OH, HEAVEN COME DOWN TONIGHT
WE WANNA SEE YOUR GLORY SHINE
BURNIN" LIKE A FLAME, BURNIN" LIKE A FLAME FOREVER

BREAK EVERY STRONGHOLD
SHATTER EVERY WALL SO WE CAN SEE
HEAVEN COME DOWN TONIGHT

Behind the Song:
This is one of my favorites on the album. I wrote it with Chris Stevens, just tinkering around in the studio and it became a really big song; massive in terms of sound. The song says, 'Heaven come down tonight. We want to see your glory shine, burning like a flame forever. Break every stronghold. Shatter every wall so we can see, heaven come down tonight.' It"s a big chorus and the reaction it got on tour was amazing! - Michael W. Smith
