Ruins

Ruins of a house built by vanity and pride
Tear down every wall
Until there's nothing left to hide
Lay a new foundation that's steady and true
May the work of my hands be established by you

Filled with selfish ambition
Wayward, led astray by my pride
Boasting with pretension
Wise in my own blinded eyes

Ruins of a house built by vanity and pride
Tear down every wall
Until there's nothing left to hide
Lay a new foundation that's steady and true
May the work of my hands be established by you

Oh Lord take your glory
Keep my greedy heart from conceit
And redeem my story
With a strength that comes when I'm weak

Ruins of a house built by vanity and pride
Tear down every wall
Until there's nothing left to hide
Lay a new foundation that's steady and true
May the work of my hands be established by you

Who will rebuild what has been broken by my pride
A humble savior who in love gave up his life
Now exalted on the throne awaiting every knee to bow

Ruins of a house built by vanity and pride
Tear down every wall
Until there's nothing left to hide

Ruins of a house built by vanity and pride
Tear down every wall
Until there's nothing left to hide
Lay a new foundation that's steady and true
May the work of my hands be established by you
