Scatter These Thieves

Margaret Becker


See this tower of vanity 
Scatter it to the wind 
Tear it down piece by piece 
Scatter it to the wind 
Level the walls of this rebel heart 
Let Your light invade my dark 
Crush the pride in every part 
And scatter it to the wind 

CHORUS 
Scatter, scatter, scatter these thieves 
That steal Your truth and burden me 
Sweet, sweet, sweet liberty 
When You are all that's left 
In me 

See this tiger of retaliation 
Scatter it to the wind 
See this tongue of defamation 
Scatter it to the wind 
Bind these hands of selfishness 
Find the sins I can't confess 
Cleanse me from unrighteousness 
And scatter it to the wind 
Scatter it to the wind 

CHORUS 

This is my beginning 
This is my end 
This is the ground 
I must die to defend 
I must die to defend 
As long as I live 
As long as I breathe 
You must grow stronger 
Stronger, stronger 
In me 

Chorus 

Cleanse me 
Let the water pour 
Over me 
Flowing down, down, down
