Christa Wells - Renovate lyrics

A lot of work to be done here Before the sun goes down Keep turning these rocks over and over Till we clear them out Who knows how long the day will be? I took a year to be empty Laid my pen aside You brought the word and you fed me Then we set the field on fire And from the ash rose a garden All gain comes through loss You burn away the dross Every master builder must tear down to renovate Take all the time you need Make something out of me Oh, even if it means you tear me down to renovate Will you tell me the story When I lose my faith Will you whisper, remind me; This is the way of grace To take my rags, dress me like royalty All gain comes through loss You burn away the dross Every master builder must tear down to renovate Take all the time you need Make something out of me Oh, even if it means you tear me down to renovate You saw the fools gold You recognized the footholds You know how my aching arms try to hang the stars alone I saw it all burn And the flatbed of new wood It was clear that you were here to build a home You were here to build a home All gain comes through loss You burn away the dross Every master builder must tear down to renovate Take all the time you need Make something out of me Oh, even if it means you tear me down to renovate
