On holy ground
And I know that there are angels
All around
Let us praise Jesus now
We are standing in His presence
On holy ground
We′re standing on holy ground
For the Lord is here
And where He is, is holy
This is holy ground
We're standing on holy ground
For the Lord is here
And where He is, is holy
We are standing
On holy ground
And I know that there are angels
All around
Let us praise Jesus now, let us praise
Let us praise Jesus now, let us praise
Let us praise Jesus now
For we are standing, we are standing in His presence
On holy ground

on The Fire and The Rain
The sky is turning cold
as the winds begin to blow
The night the prophets told the clouds
to brew and gather close
The stories of the saints
Telling tales of dead bones raised
The intercessions stir and wake up
Fire and the rain
The bride is rising up
She's been waiting long enough
The lamps are lit, let the trumps begin
Oh come Lord Jesus, come
Come Lord Jesus, Jesus come
Come Lord Jesus, Jesus come
Things are about to change
The Earth is gonna shake
Cause every knee will hit the ground
and proclaim that Jesus reigns
Come Lord Jesus, Jesus come
Come Lord Jesus, Jesus come
The fire and the rain, the fire and the rain
Are coming down, coming down
to beckon for the day
The fire and the rain, the fire and the rain
Are coming down, coming down
to beckon for the day
Come Lord Jesus, Jesus come
Come Lord Jesus, Jesus come
Yeah, come Lord Jesus
Oh, we need you, need you
Oh, Jesus come
