Joshua Houeto - Rebuilt

Lord please build me, build me back up take
My hand Lord and lead me to the cross
Lord rebuild me, build me back up
I been downcast, Lord I wanna be rebuilt

Uh, here, I go again, vicious monotony victimizes my property
Breaking down my autonomy that I had deep within my
Foundation is shaky, and beaten by rain, these walls have been breaking
And hit by the waves, of constant desolation, restoration and change
I search in desperation but I know it seems so far away cant
Take it no more I been faking and waiting for something or
Someone to come to my aid, saving the day cause I'm losing my way
And I'm constantly moving and cruising away, losing the feeling and
Losing the urge, flooded with reasons to give up and turn
Broken and shattered my hope is in tatters I'm coping so bad
And I'm needing a raise, I am not talking a cheque or a salary
I'm talking the Spirit that raised, Jesus, up from the dead
Been down but I'm lifting my head, drifting no longer
Now pressing ahead, He's picking me up and rebuilding me
He's fixing me up and refilling me, getting me ready for ministry
Telling me go, ain't gonna take this no more, bout time
I just said no, I will rise from the ashes and I know, I'm free
From the shackles and they won't keep me from reaching
My destiny, I'm finally seeing the recipe for freedom
It's knowing that God will be keeping me even in
Darkness He's lighting my soul, redeeming my heart
And He's letting me know, though everything's broken
He's making it whole

Lord please build me, build me back up take
My hand Lord and lead me to the cross
Lord rebuild me, build me back up
I been downcast, Lord I wanna be rebuilt
I been broken and I'm trashed up
Lord I need you to repair my loss
Lord please build me, I'm so smashed up
I need a renovation, Lord I want to be rebuilt

Lord please build me, build me back up take
My hand Lord and lead me to the cross
Lord rebuild me, build me back up
I been downcast, Lord I wanna be rebuilt

Pick me up and lift me up, I wanna be rebuilt
Pick me up and lift me up, I wanna be rebuilt
Lord please build me, I wanna be rebuilt
I wanna be rebuilt, Lord I wanna be rebuilt

Starlight's in the nighttime illuminate with the limelight
My eyes see the moonshine illustrating the dark sky

Illuminate, have you confronted your true self
I'm not talking about the facade or the mask that you
Put on everyday, I mean your true self, who you
Really are, and the angel of God said to Jacob what is
Your name, and it was only when he was finally able to
Acknowledge himself that he was transformed and from
That day forward he was no longer Jacob but now
Israel, will you illuminate, will you confront the
Flaws, the inadequacies, the failures and the defeat
Illumination begins with confrontation so today
I ask you what is your name, my name is
Joshua Houeto and this is my journey from darkness to illumination

Starlight's in the nighttime illuminate with the limelight
My eyes see the moonshine illustrating the dark sky
Oh oh oh illuminate with the limelight
Oh oh oh illuminate with the limelight

Singing in the night sky
Oh singing in the night sky
