Empires cover
09. Empires
Album: Empires
Artist: Hillsong UNITED
         
 

We are worlds we are bodies
Empires of dirt and grace
Silhouettes and reflections
Caught in His holy flame

Beneath our skin
A new creation
The night is done
Our chains are broken
The time has come
The wait is over
The King is here
And His Name is Jesus

This is love
Bending skies to heal the broken
This is love
Bleeding life into the grave
Hear the sound
As our hearts cry out forever
Singing hallelujah
Breathing in a brand new world

We are shadows and portraits
Empires of light and clay
Images of our Maker
Sinners called out as saints

No eye has seen
No ear has heard
No mind conceive
What heaven holds
But here and now
Let earth be found
With all our crowns
Upon Your Name


Words and Music by Joel Houston, Dylan Thomas, Chris Davenport & Ben Tennikoff © 2015 Hillsong Music Publishing (APRA) (admin. in the US and Canada at CapitolCMGPublishing.com)
