Circumcise Our Hearts


Circumcise our hearts that we might love you

As in the resurrection of your Son we rest

In our hearts may no thing reign above You

Lord, lead us in the paths of righteousness.


For we are the people of the empty tomb

You have delivered us from certain doom

We are the promised of the One bridegroom

We are the people of the empty tomb.

Your resurrection power makes the weak man strong

Your resurrection power enables our song


Circumcise our hearts and then complete us

Circumcise our hearts that we might live

Separate us from the flesh that would cheat us

Of all the glorious blessings you will give


Bridge

Cut off from the power of death

Dead to sin, alive to Christ

We live and move with every breath

In the power of resurrection life!


Cut us off from the kingdoms of the worldly way

Separate us from desires of wood stubble and hay

Divide us from the darkness of this world’s decay

Raise us up from the grave into your glorious day

Give us faith to live in the light of the unseen

Show us what Your resurrection power means


For we are the people of the empty tomb

You have delivered us from certain doom

We are the promised of the One bridegroom

We are the people of the empty tomb.

Your resurrection power makes the weak man strong

Your resurrection power enables our song
