Hillsong United - Desperate People Lyrics

Artist: Hillsong United

Album: Miscellaneous

  • Songwriters: Guy Chislett, Joel Houston

You crossed the great divide, You took our place
You offered up Your life, for we had failed
The veil was torn and love remained
You are holy, Lord

Distraction costs us, how we seek Your face
We offer up our lives to bring You praise
A love the walls cannot contain
You are holy, Lord

We're rising up in spirit and in truth
A living sacrifice, we worship You
People undivided, Lord, hear us sing
We are Yours and You are our King

This is our love, hearts joined as one
Desperate for all You are
Lord, break down these walls and see how we love
Desperate for all You are, we chase Your heart

We didn't come to leave here entertained
Or worship under any other name
We're crying out for You alone
You are holy, Lord

We're rising up in spirit and in truth
A living sacrifice, we worship You
People undivided, Lord, hear us sing
We are Yours and You are our king

This is our love, hearts joined as one
Desperate for all You are
Lord, break down these walls and see how we love
Desperate for all You are, we chase Your heart

Show us the way to Your heart

We found our voice, we found our cause
We're on our knees, the carpet's worn
As we join our hearts with distant shores
And sing to You, Lord

This is our love, hearts joined as one
Desperate for all You are
Lord, break down these walls and see how we love
Desperate for all You are

This is our love, hearts joined as one
Desperate for all You are
Oh Lord, break down these walls and see how we love
Desperate for all You are, we chase your heart
