Misty Edwards – Baptize My Heart lyrics

I can hear the song
Of our Creator singing over creation

I played the flute
Did you dance?
I sang the wedding song over you
Were you romanced?
I played the funeral dirge
Did you lament?
I told you My judgments were in the land
But did, did you repent?
For even children
Know when to dance
And even children know
When to lament

I played the flute for you
Did you dance?
I sang the wedding song over you
Were you romanced?
I played the funeral song
Did you lament?
I told you My judgments were on the land
But did you repent?
Repent, did you repent?
For even children
Know when to dance
And even children know
When to lament

What shall I liken to this generation
Like children in a market place

We played the flute
You did not dance
We played the funeral song
You did not lament

Oh God,
Teach me how to dance
How to lament
Show me what You're looking for
What kind of response You're asking of me
Oh oh

Baptize my heart with Your fire, desire
(Repeat 4X)
I don't want to be offended
I don't want to be offended
I don't want to be offended
When it's all coming down
I don't want to be offended
I don't want to be offended
I don't want to be offended
When it's all coming down

Baptize my heart with Your fire, desire
(Repeat 4X)
I don't want to be offended
I don't want to be offended
I don't want to be offended
When it's all coming down
I don't want to be offended
I don't want to be offended
I don't want to be offended
When it's all coming down

Once again You're going to shake everything that can be shaken
Jesus, desire of the nations
The only, only safe place is in the center of the Flame
The only safe place is in You

Baptize my heart with Your fire, desire
(Repeat 4X)
I don't want to be offended
I don't want to be offended
I don't want to be offended
When it's all coming down
I don't want to be offended
I don't want to be offended
I don't want to be offended
When it's all coming down

I want to be for You
Not against You
I want to be with You where You are
(Repeat x4)

I pledge my allegiance to Jesus, to Jesus
I pledge my allegiance to the Lamb
(Repeat x3)

When the nations are raging against You
When the nations who are at ease
When the nations are raging against You
I wanna be with You where You are
I don't want to be swept away with the wicked and the wave of delusion
I wanna be with You where You are

Baptize my heart with Your fire,
Desire, Jesus
(Repeat x4)
I don't want to be offended
I don't want to be offended
I don't want to be offended
When it's all coming down

I pledge my allegiance to Jesus, to Jesus
I pledge my allegiance to the Lamb
(Repeat 3X)

To the son of David
To the Jewish carpenter from Nazareth
When it's all coming down
When the nations are raging against Him
I pledge my allegiance to Jesus Christ of Nazareth
The Jewish King
The Son of David
The Slain Lamb
Oh, for I know that He is the Magnificent obsession
And He is the desire of the nations
To turn it all around
In just a matter of time
I am going to choose this day to love Him, to serve Him
I am going to choose this day to cling to Him and Him alone
I pledge my allegiance to Jesus, to Jesus
I pledge my allegiance to the Lamb
When it's all coming down...

Once again You're gonna shake everything that can be shaken
Oh, Righteous Judge of the nations
Beautiful Bridegroom
Lover of my soul
Do what you have to do
Just come
Come make the wrong things right
Come make the darkness light
Come turn the world upside down, 'cause
There is no peace until You come back, Jesus

Until You return
Return, return, return,
Return, return, return
Jesus, please come back
Creation is groaning and waiting, waiting and groaning, groaning and waiting,
Waiting and groaning, groaning and waiting
For your return
You are the only Man of Peace
That we want
You are the only King that we cry to come again
Return, Jesus come
Come again Jesus
