Take These Walls Down
by Michael Larson

Album: October Hill

Verse 1:
It's been a long, long time inside these walls
It's been a heavy load to bear, these later years
I need to find the door I can't take this anymore
It's been a hard fought battle in these walls
It's hard to find my breath, I'm tired and sick
I want to go home
It's time to go home

Chorus:
Take these walls down (Take these walls down)
Take me home now (Take me home now)
I leave it abandoned (Leave it all to)
To see your love (See Your love)
I hear your Son calling (Hear him calling)
My heart is leaping (My heart's leaping)
I want to see Jesus (Jesus)
Take these walls down

Verse 2:
I can't seem to push aside this pain
I can't seem to fight another minute
These chains won't break
'Til you take me away
I see the green grass growing up above
I see the sea of crystal, the streets of gold, a crown of life
I see your hand reaching for mine

Verse 3:
It's been a long, long time inside these walls
It's been a long, long time since I have known
His peace in my life
Those times have passed me by
It's been a long, long road that I have walked
It's been a long, hard journey
Where my pride has stolen all his dreams
Would he give them back to me?
