Glorious Wreckage

(Heavy, distorted guitar riff opens)

Verse 1

When the fault lines open wide, and the ground gives way beneath

When the concrete cracks and swallows every promise we believe

The sea is spitting fury now, the mountains turn to dust

But there's a current underneath, a quiet, stubborn trust

Yeah, the world is on a tremor, a universal shake

But there’s a fortress on a hill, a stand we have to take.

Chorus

You are the strength, the shelter in the flood

A fire in the chaos, misunderstood

Let the kingdoms crumble, let the oceans foam

I will not be moved, I will not fear the unknown.

Be still, and know the gravity will fail.

Be still, and know that one truth will prevail.

Verse 2

I see the nations gathering, the frantic, desperate call

Their systems built on quicksand are waiting for the fall

The thunder breaks the silence, a voice inside the sound

And everything that's temporary is melting to the ground.

We saw the glorious wreckage, the way the structures bend

He breaks the bow and snaps the spear, brings every war to an end.

Chorus

You are the strength, the shelter in the flood

A fire in the chaos, misunderstood

Let the kingdoms crumble, let the oceans foam

I will not be moved, I will not fear the unknown.

Be still, and know the gravity will fail.

Be still, and know that one truth will prevail.

Bridge

There is a river running through the wreckage and the fray

A pulse beneath the pavement that washes doubt away

From the first light of the morning, 'til the dead of night is past

This city won't surrender, this fortress is built to last.

Guitar Solo (Intense, melodic, building to a crash)

Chorus

You are the strength, the shelter in the flood

A fire in the chaos, misunderstood

Let the kingdoms crumble, let the oceans foam

I will not be moved, I will not fear the unknown.

Be still, and know the gravity will fail.

Be still, and know that one truth will prevail.

Outro

Be still.

(The Lord of Heaven's Armies is here among us)

Be still.

(Our fortress.)
