Only Love Remains

(David Cooley)

 

I’ve built this fortress with my very own two hands

A place where I could hide away

Where fallen shadows of a bent and broken man

Would never see the light of day

 

The stones are every lie I’ve made myself believe

The mortar, vain and foolish pride

I couldn’t bear to have you turn your eyes away

Yet I tremble in Your light

 

Take away my pride

Tear down my fear and shame

Nothing stands between us now

Only love remains, only love remains

 

You know the worst of me, my innermost desires

No secret hidden from your sight

You hear my feeble words before they leave my mouth

You see right through my frail disguise

 

Take away my pride

Tear down my fear and shame

Melt away my every sin

With drops of crimson rain

Crumble walls around my heart

Lord, I am Yours to claim

Nothing stands between us now

Only love remains

Only love remains
