extravagant love come down

C.S. LEWIS SONG
(by Brooke Fraser)

VERSE 1
If I find in myself
Desires nothing in this world can satisfy
I can only conclude
That I, I was not made for here
If the flesh that I fight
Is at best only light and momentary
Then of course, I’ll feel nude
When to where I’m destined I’m compared

CHORUS
Speak to me in the light of the dawn
Mercy comes with the mornin’
I will sigh and with all creation groan
As I wait for hope to come for me

VERSE 2
Am I lost or just less found
On the straight or on the roundabout of the wrong way
Is this a soul that stirs in me
Is it breaking free, wanting to come alive
‘Cos my comfort would prefer for me to be numb
And avoid the impending birth of who I was born to become

CHORUS
Speak to me in the light of the dawn
Mercy comes with the mornin’
I will sigh and with all creation groan
As I wait for hope to come for me

BRIDGE
For we
We are not long here
Our time is but a breath
So we better breathe it
And I
I was made to live
I was made to love
I was made to know You

Hope
Is comin’ for me
Hope
Is comin’ for me
Hope
Is comin’ for me
Hope
He’s comin’

Speak to me in the light of the dawn
Mercy comes with the mornin’, mornin’
I will sigh and with all creation groan
As I wait for hope to come for me, for me, for me, for me…

I was made to live, to love, to know You. God, bring me back. Where’s that hunger I used to have for You? I need to thirst for You like never before. That thirst to know You more.
