Wild Horses
by Mervis

Album: When Words Fail

Verse
why aren't we running, when we are free?
why aren't we flying, when the cage has been broken?
is it true that church became our prison
'cause we filled it up, with much religion?

why are we dying, when we should be living?
why are we judging, when we should be loving?
but our pride, and selfish gain
blinded our eyes to see we became our own gods

Bridge
but if i was blind, then i would see
but what i see is blinding me
'cause i see idolatry

Pre-Chorus
so come and break this man pleasing spirit
lord, shake these chains from our hearts
come and open our eyes that we may see you
come and open our hearts that we may feel you

Chorus
we were born to run with wild horses
we were born to fly with wild eagles
we were born to walk in the image of christ

we were born to run with the lion
we were born sons and daughters of zion
whild at heart, burning with passion for you

Verse
why aren't we praying, when this whole world is dying?
why aren't we broken for the poor and the lost?
is it true that we filled our fleshly desires
with the pleasures of this world
and why are we not hungry for god?
