Sorry for the long post of all the lyrics, but I felt that it was necessary to have you guys check out the words to this song, especially since most of us just listen to the music and become emotionally moved; however, there is POWER in the lyrics, there is POWER in the Word of God, and well, you just know when God writes a song... b/c there is POWER in those lyrics/words as well.
Guys (and gals) there IS something we have missed... it's sad to say, but it's true... and that something is the LOVE of God.
You know that saying, or that song: "...and they'll know we are Christians by our Love by our Love, yes they'll know we are Christians by our looooovvveee" - HA, good stuff.. but are we living it out??
Isn't it sad to realize that most of this world knows us as Christians by our hypocrisies??

1. The practice of professing beliefs, feelings, or virtues that one does not hold or possess; falseness.
2. An act or instance of such falseness.
It is TIME to stand up and say that WE will live for Christ, in all that we do. Not just in worship. Not just on Sunday mornings, but when we're at work. When we're at school. When we're at the grocery store... this world needs to see God's love shining through us. We need to begin to reflect His love in our lives, somehow, someway...
It's sad. It really is, when "Christianity" is viewed as people who confess their beliefs with their mouths, but fail to live it out. HONESTLY, i do it too. We ALL do it. But we need to say no more. No more to this world, and yes to reflecting His love.
When we're able to do that... it will TEAR DOWN THE WALLS that we OURSELVES have placed up in our lives. You want your walls to come CRUMBLING DOWN?? THEN STOP HOLDING UP THE WALL. Plain and simple.
And watch LOVE tear it down, and restore all creation back to Christ.
God Bless!

Tear Down The Walls
-Hillsong United-
verse 1
Tear down the walls see the world
Is there something we have missed
Turn from ourselves
Look beyond
There is so much more than this
pre-chorus
And I don’t need to see it to believe it
I don’t need to see it to believe it
Cause I can’t shake this
Fire deep inside my heart
verse 2
Look to the skies hope arise
See His majesty revealed
More than this life there is love
There is hope and this is real
pre-chorus - (1x)
chorus
This life is Yours and hope is rising
As Your glory floods our hearts
Let love tear down these walls
That all creation would
Come back to You
It’s all for You
Your Name is glorious
Glorious
Your love is changing us
Calling us
To worship in spirit and in truth
As all creation returns to You
bridge
Oh for all the sons and daughters
Who are walking in the darkness
You are calling us to lead them back to You
We will see Your spirit rising
As the lost come out of hiding
Every heart will see this hope we have in You
