Come Into This House
Gary Oliver Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴Chorus
Come into this house,
Magnify the Lord
Lift up holy hands, our
Hearts in one accord
For He's worthy, worthy
Of all our praise
Stop dissin' just listen, Let me kick a little slang
Out
I'll tell you all about
Where we power people
Hang out
With power over demons
And anything that's
Wicked
We've trained our brains
To know Christ is the
Ticket
Look plain and simp', the
Devil's a pimp
The power of praise can
Heal your limp
You've been spurned and
Burned by a life with no
Flavor
Bust out of prison with
The risen life Saviour
Chorus
You've been used and
Abused, sold down the
River
I've got news you can
Choose, you need to be
Delivered
With Christ you win,
Without Christ you lose
But if you jam with the
Lamb, you're smooth
Amputation situation first
Cut out the jive, cut into
Church
You need a healin' touch,
A big strong hand
Come rock with the flock
With the brothers that
Jam
Chorus
He's worthy of honor
And glory
Worthy of power
And praise
Worship and bow down
Before Him

Exalt His name today
Chorus
