We were writing it and we had a melody, and I started hunting through my journal and found this one phrase – joy takes temptation’s place – and it’s repeated all through the song. When we realize that we are a cathedral, that we are a dwelling place, we also realize you need to fill a house with som...
[Verse 1]
We were built by the hands of love
Redeemed in spite of what we’ve done
We are the spirit’s dwelling place
And now, children of the light
Fight back darkness with delight
Lift your eyes up to his face
Let joy take temptation’s place
Joy takes temptation’s place
[Chorus]
Open up our souls
To feel your glory
Lord, we are a desperate people
Your cathedrals
God, fill this space
Let joy take temptation’s place
We will taste and see you as you are
[Verse 2]
Father, let your kingdom come
Keep us from our lesser loves
Nothing else can satisfy
Like a joy found in your eyes
There’s joy found inside your eyes
Your eyes
[Chorus]
Open up our souls
To feel your glory
Lord, we are a desperate people
Your cathedrals
God, fill this space
Let joy take temptation’s place
We will taste and see you as you are
[Bridge]
And our hungry souls reach out to whatever fills us up
But we’ll keep on falling down unless we fall in love
Our hungry souls reach out to whatever fills us up
But we keep on falling down until we fall in love
[Chorus]
Open up our souls
To feel your glory
Lord, we are a desperate people
Your cathedrals
God, fill this space
Let joy take temptation’s place
We will taste and see you as you are
