Black Voices Movement and Lindy Cofer's song is a worship anthem that calls believers to prepare their hearts for the Lord, echoing the biblical call of John the Baptist. The lyrics focus on fixing one's eyes on Jesus, the King, and declaring 'yes' to His lordship. The chorus centers on beholding the Lamb of God and singing hosanna, while the bridge exalts Jesus as more precious than silver or gold. The song expresses a commitment to lifelong praise and surrender to God's calling.

Verse

We are a voice crying out in the wilderness

Prepare ye the way of the Lord

We turn our hearts

We lift our eyes and sing

Prepare ye the way of the Lord

Pre-Chorus

We can?t take our eyes of you

We won?t take our eyes off you

The king is calling

We say yes to the Lord most high

The king is calling

We say yes to the Lord most high

Chorus

We behold the lamb of God

We sing hosanna

Bridge 1

More precious than silver

More costly than gold

Is our king Jesus

The lamb we behold

Bridge 2

Forever all my days

I will ever sing your praise
