Verse 1:

Make way for the King of Glory

Make room for His presence here

With honor and adoration

We welcome You, we welcome You


Verse 2:

This place is an open heaven

Come do what You want to do

Our hearts are here and waiting

We welcome You, we welcome You


Chorus:

Be lifted up you ancient gates

We lift our heads, we set our face

Desperate to see Your kingdom come

Your will be done, Your will be done


Verse 3:

Jesus, You're the firm foundation

Jesus, You're the Cornerstone

Come make us Your habitation

We are Your home, we are Your home


Bridge:

Every tribe, every nation

One by one, You are shaking
