A Wall of Fire

A song based on Zechariah 2:1-13, which reads

"And I lifted my eyes and saw, and behold, a man with a measuring line in his hand! Then I said, “Where are you going?” And he said to me, “To measure Jerusalem, to see what is its width and what is its length.” And behold, the angel who talked with me came forward, and another angel came forward to meet him and said to him, “Run, say to that young man,‘Jerusalem shall be inhabited as villages without walls, because of the multitude of people and livestock in it. And I will be to her a wall of fire all around, declares the Lord, and I will be the glory in her midst.’”

Up! Up! Flee from the land of the north, declares the Lord. For I have spread you abroad as the four winds of the heavens, declares the Lord. Up! Escape to Zion, you who dwell with the daughter of Babylon. For thus said the Lord of hosts, after His glory sent me to the nations who plundered you, for he who touches you touches the apple of His eye: “Behold, I will shake my hand over them, and they shall become plunder for those who served them. Then you will know that the Lord of hosts has sent me. Sing and rejoice, O daughter of Zion, for behold, I come and I will dwell in your midst, declares the Lord. And many nations shall join themselves to the Lord in that day, and shall be My people. And I will dwell in your midst, and you shall know that the Lord of hosts has sent me to you. And the Lord will inherit Judah as His portion in the holy land, and will again choose Jerusalem.”

Be silent, all flesh, before the Lord, for He has roused himself from His holy dwelling."




You who presume to measure out the weight

The value of My precious Bride

Know this, that I the LORD will fill her with Myself

She will overflow with wealth from the inside

Break down every wall 'round Zion, My flock

My Church, for you I will be

A wall ablaze in fire which no enemy can scale

Your glory will be only Me

Keep your love on Me

Keep your eyes on the Truth

Heart of My heart

Apple of My eye

Let Me always be

Your wall of fire, your glory, your only God

Come out of your slavery to the doctrines of man

The false church surrounded by lies

Escape to My stronghold--here you are safe!

Who can touch the Apple of My eye?

I come in war against the false, lying church

She will bow before those she enslaved

Sing and rejoice, your God has come to dwell

With His portion, His Bride, here to stay!

Keep your love on Me

Keep your eyes on the Truth

Heart of My heart

Apple of My eye

Let Me always be

Your wall of fire, your glory, your only God

Be silent all flesh

Before the Lord

Behold He comes

To deal justly with the world

And carry away a pure Bride
