Kate Flanders - Be Honest

Baptise my creativity
And fill me with your presence
A tangible reshaping
A love that overflows
Everything that I've given you
You brought me in the first place
Who am I to throw it away
It's all I want to know

So light up the darkest parts of me
Illuminate my failings
And build me in your likeness
Change my heart for good
When these walls come up, surrounding me
Hold me in the violence
Show me where the fight is
Yours is the victory

I saw your hand break down the walls
Of everything I built
Cause I was blind to all you'd promised me
So open my heart and fill my lungs
Offend my sense of self and lead me towards who I was meant to be

And it's so much better
When I surrender and sanctify my love
Cause I looked in your eyes
And saw a delight when I chose to come home

So take me, a broken prodigal
And set me in the picture
Show me how to live for
The king that set me free
Greater love has no one than this
A sacrifice made personal
A grace that has the last word
His name's enough for me

And I saw your hand break down the walls
Of everything I built
Cause I was blind to all you'd promised me
So open my heart and fill my lungs
Offend my sense of self and lead me towards who I was meant to be

And it's so much better
When I surrender and sanctify my love
Cause I looked in your eyes
And saw a delight when I chose to come home

(Ooh)

And I saw your peace break through the dark
A burst of flames like nothing I have ever seen with my own eyes
I let go of what I had in mind
And learned to trust that you would find me here
You would a million times

Cause it's so much better
When I surrender and sanctify my love

Yeah it's so much better
When I surrender and sanctify my love
Cause I looked in your eyes
And saw a delight when I chose to come home

Ooh, come home
