[Verse 1]
Under the broken halo
He calls the lost by name
Not flesh, not bone, not thunder
Only soul and flame
His sons in ghostly orbit
Circle the golden throne
Each one a wound in silence
Each one a seed grown
[Pre-Chorus]
Then He asks, "Will you allow it?"
"Will you bear what I become?"
The dark grows still around them
And every voice comes one by one
[Chorus]
Yes, Father, make us
Yes, Father, shape us
Take our drifting fire
And make it home
Yes, Father, lead us
Yes, Father, keep us
If You are our Creator
We are Your own
(We are Your own)
(We are Your own)
[Verse 2]
Lion with the lion-breath
Sanguinius in the gray
Ferrus like a hammer
Vulkan in the ash
Russ with teeth of winter
Dorn in iron light
Corax in the shadow
Jaghatai in flight
[Pre-Chorus]
Then He asks, "Will you allow it?"
"Will you bear what I become?"
The dark grows still around them
And every voice comes one by one
[Chorus]
Yes, Father, make us
Yes, Father, shape us
Take our drifting fire
And make it home
Yes, Father, lead us
Yes, Father, keep us
If You are our Creator
We are Your own
(We are Your own)
(We are Your own)
[Bridge]
One by one they kneel in silence
Not to chains, but to the dawn
They were sons before the breaking
They are sons when broken's gone
And in that vast permission
In that awful, holy light
A king becomes a maker
And grief becomes the rite
[Final Chorus]
Yes, Father, make us
Yes, Father, shape us
Take our drifting fire
And make it home
Yes, Father, lead us
Yes, Father, keep us
If You are our Creator
We are Your own
(We are Your own)
(We are Your own)
