The Altar Of Love - Downhere

Lay down your weapons

Lay down your violence

Lay down rebellion

Your heart of defiance

Love will ask of you more than truces

If you’re willing to lose

Blessing far outweighs the loss when you lay it all

On the Altar of Love

Lay down your idols

Lay down your possessions

Lay down your shrines and

Your worldly obsessions

Love will ask of you more than treasure

When you’re willing to trust

Blessing far outweighs

The loss when you lay it all

You lay it all on the Altar of Love

In the holiest room

Where the curtain was torn

By the ultimate wound

Oh, the Altar of Love

Where the glory resides

For the Father and Son

And the Spirit invite

Oh, the Altar of Love

To its form we are blind

But you know when it’s there

Like the sun through shut eyes

Oh, the Altar of Love

Yes, you come here to die

But you know that it’s good

Cuz you come out alive

Love will ask of you more than you can give

When you’re willing to live

Blessing far outweighs the loss when you lay it all

On the Altar of Love
