Come open the doors and make way
The King is in the room, the King is in the room
Expectant for strongholds to break
'Cause we know what You can do, we know what You can do
We're gonna see lives changed, souls saved
Broken hearts made new
The King is in the room, Lord we enthrone You upon our praise
The King is in the room, there's freedom and life anywhere You reign
Jesus we bow only to You, we're laying down all of our crowns
The King is in the room
Come see all the captives run free
He's tearing down the walls, He's tearing down the walls
There's grave shaking pow'r when we sing
The Name above them all, Your Name above them all
Fear has to flee, shame has to leave
Before the King, before the King
Chains have to break, dry bones awake
Prepare the way, woh
Fear has to flee, shame has to leave
Before the King, before the King
Chains have to break, dry bones awake
Prepare the way
Prepare the way, prepare the way, He's in the room
Prepare the way, prepare the way, the King is in the room
Prepare the way, prepare the way, He's in the room
Prepare the way, prepare the way, the King is in the room
