What a shame, we all became such fragile, broken things
A memory remains just a tiny spark

I give it all my oxygen
To let the flames begin
So let the flames begin
Oh glory
Oh glory

This is how we’ll dance when
When they try to take us down
This is what will be, oh glory

Somewhere weakness is our strength
And I’ll die searching for it
I can’t let myself regret such selfishness

My pain and all the trouble caused
No matter how long
I believe that there’s hope
Buried beneath it all and
Hiding beneath it all and
Growing beneath it all and

This is how we’ll dance when
When they try to take us down
This is how we’ll sing, oh

This is how we’ll stand when
When they burn our houses down
This is what will be, oh glory

Reaching as I sink down into light
(Into light)
Reaching as I sink down into light
(Into light)

This is how we dance when
When they try to take us down
This is how we’ll sing, oh
This is how we’ll stand when
When they burn our houses down
This is what will be, oh glory

Oh Father
Oh Father
Oh Father
My Jesus

Father
Well I am ready
Won’t you let it begin?

‘Cause I am here now
I want to dance in
The mighty palm of your hand

What a shame, what a shame we all remain such fragile, broken things
A beauty had betrayed
Butterflies with punctured wings

Still there are darkened places deep in my heart
Where once was blazing light, now there’s a tiny spark

Oh glory
Come and find me, oh glory
Come and find me

Dancing all alone to the sound of an enemy’s song
I’ll be lost until you find me
Fighting on my own
In a war that’s already been won
I’ll be lost until you come and find me here, oh glory
Here

What a mess, what a mystery we’ve made
Love and other simple things
Learning to forgive even when it wasn’t our mistake

I question every human
Who won’t look in my eyes
Scars left on my heart formed patterns in my mind

Oh glory
You will find me

Dancing all alone to the sound of an enemy’s song
I’ll be lost until you find me
Fighting on my own
In a war that’s already been won
I’ll be lost until you come and find me here, oh glory

(I’ll be lost until)

Like the moon we borrow our light
I am nothing but a shadow in the night
So if you let me, I will catch fire
To let your glory and mercy shine
