let Your glory come down...

These are the lyrics of a song by Jason Upton, that is my heart's cry for the church worldwide:

Father, listen to our earnest prayer
Jesus prayed it years ago
That the glory You had given Him
We would somehow come to know
So make us one according to Your plan
As in heaven it will be
Fill us with the truth and righteousness
You desire the world to see

Let Your glory and honor
Fall on our face
Holy Father
Rest in this place

The church is sick and need of God alone
And people we must seek His face
If we turn from all our unrighteousness
He’ll forgive our evil ways
So may the eyes of God be on us here
Lord, revive us by Your grace
Holy Spirit be forever near
Saturate us in this place

Let Your glory and honor
Fall on our face
Holy Father
Rest in this place

Let the fire fall
Let the wind blow
Let the glory come down

God please help us to have the right heart focus - that we wouldn't try to bring you stuff or do things for you out of  legalism, obligation or duty, but that it would flow out of deep passionate love for You. Correct our hearts so that we are longing for You, not just what You can do - that we would seek Your face, not just Your hand. Thank You that You do act, but that that wouldn't be our focus; that knowing You intimately would be our goal, and from that, everything else would flow. When we see nothing but Your face, every thing else falls into it's proper place.

Let us be dissatisfied and desperate so that we will seek You without ceasing and never give up hope! Capture our heats again and amaze us with who You are! Help us to recognize our hunger and thirst, which can only be satisfied by You, so that we will come to You alone to be filled.

Bring revival in every heart - awaken us, teach us to sing again! Rain down Your fire, wind and rain of the Spirit. More LORD!
