Lyrics
(Spoken Word)
A house don’t stand without a pillar
And a man ain’t a man
If he won’t stand still
(Verse 1)
We were born with the weight on our name
Not for comfort, not for fame
Hands to building, backs to bear
A fire inside that don’t play fair
(Pre-Chorus)
World says drift
World says fold
World says chase that fleeting gold
But truth cuts deep like a sharpen blade
A man of God don’t live afraid
(Chorus)
Be watchful
Stand firm in the faith
Act like men
Be strong
(Verse 2)
You can run from the call
You can hide in the dark
But a kingdom falls when men lose heart
We are the hands, we are the flame
We bear the weight of His holy name
(Pre-Chorus)
Leave the house, don’t let it fall
Stand like a wall when the shadows call
Protect, provide, speak the truth
Live it loud in all you do
(Chorus)
We are the altar the fire will stand
Built by God to lead this land
Your body ain’t yours, it’s borrowed breath
A temple standing between life and death
What you feed it, what you chase
See the built strength that breeds disgrace
Discipline ain’t a word, it’s war
Every choice is a ledger score
You lead your home or you leave it bare
No middle ground, choose your care
(Bridge)
Know ye not
That your body is the temple
Of the Holy Ghost
Which is in you?
If you can’t rule self, you can’t lead a soul
A broken man can’t make one whole
(Chorus)
We are the hands
We are the flame
We bear the weight of His holy name
Leave the house, don’t let it fall
Stand like a wall when the shadows call
Protect, provide
Speak the truth
Live it loud in all you do
We are the altar the fire will stand
Built by God to lead this land
(Outro)
Your children watch the road you pave
Every step can bless or break
Your woman needs a steady hand
Not a boy who won’t take a stand
Christ is the head and you beneath
That order ain’t weak, it’s strength underneath
You reflect what you obey
So walk it right
Don’t drift away
For the husband
Is the head of the wife
Even as Christ
Is the head of the church
And gave Himself for it
