I wanna run, I want to hide
I wanna tear down the walls That hold me inside I wanna reach out And touch the flame |
"Run, tell that young man, 'Jerusalem will be a city without walls.... And I myself will be a wall of fire around it,' declares the Lord, 'and I will be its glory within.'" Zechariah 2:3-5 NIV
|
And touch the flame...
We're still building then burning down love… The city’s a flood... |
Love is as powerful as death.... It bursts into flame and burns like a raging fire... no flood can drown it. Song of Solomon 8:6-7 GNB

Where the streets have no name
|
The great street of the city was of gold, as pure as transparent glass. Revelation 21:21 NIV
|
We're beaten and blown by the wind
Trampled in dust I'll show you a place High on a desert plain |
But... the one who doubts is like a wave of the sea, blown and tossed by the wind.... Believers in humble circumstances ought to take pride in their high position. But the rich should take pride in their humiliation—since they will pass away like a wild flower. For the sun rises with scorching heat and withers the plant... James 1:6-11 NIV
I said, “Oh, that I had the wings of a dove! I would fly away and be at rest. I would flee far away and stay in the desert; I would hurry to my place of shelter, far from the tempest and storm.” Psalm 55:6-8 NIV The Lord wraps himself in light as with a garment… and rides on the wings of the wind. He makes winds his messengers, flames of fire his servants. Psalm 104:2-4 NIV |
