Fortalezas de Adoração

There was a time when Jerusalem suffered captive
Its gates were burned, its walls cracked
But God raised a man named Nehemiah
To rebuild them
May it be so also in our days
May we be brave, ready to rebuild
Faith, holiness and worship to the true God

Cried, when heard that they are trying to destroy the gates of faith
And the walls of holiness throw to the ground
Cried, because know that your promise is to keep us standing
Revive our faith, oh God of Israel
Sin tries to separate us
But your glory can restore the temple

I will prepare the foundations with fasting and prayer
Raise columns of forgiveness and communion
Close the breaches
Sanballat and Tobias will not frighten me
I have a sword in my hands
I will not give up this work

Oh, God of heaven, raise me up in this generation
To erect fortresses of worship
Give me weapons to fight
Tools to worship
Your word to forge with holiness
The walls of my heart
Ooh

I will strengthen the structure with anointing
Cover the doors of my heart with wisdom
Close the breaches
Sanballat and Tobias will not frighten me
I have a sword in my hands
I will not give up this work

Oh, God of heaven, raise me up in this generation
To erect fortresses of worship
Give me weapons to fight
Tools to worship
Your word to forge with holiness
The walls of my heart

My fortress, Your word is
We are steadfast, the reason for our faith
Oh God, do in us, in this generation
Fortresses of worship
My fortress, Your word is
We are steadfast, the reason for our faith
Oh God, do for us in this generation
Fortresses of worship

Oh, God of heaven, raise me up in this generation
To erect fortresses of worship
Give me weapons to fight
Tools to worship
Your word to forge with holiness

Oh, God of heaven, raise me up in this generation
To erect fortresses of worship
Give me weapons to fight
Tools to worship
Your word to forge with holiness
The walls of my heart
