Let The Humbling Begin Lyrics

Don't think you've got the answers

Don't think you've got it right

If God's Word ain't your compass

You'll get lost in the night

We've traded truth for comfort

And called it freedom's way

But without His guiding wisdom

We'll surely lose our way

We once taught truth and honor

To every girl and boy

But now it's all forgotten

Replaced with fleeting joy

What feels good in the moment

Is now the golden rule

But when we turn from righteousness

We make ourselves the fool

Oh Lord, we've lost direction

Our hearts are filled with pride

We thought we stood unshaken

But now we're torn inside

Bring us back to mercy

To the place where grace begins

Oh Lord, we need Your presence

Let the humbling begin

How did we grow so blinded

And still claim we are wise?

We've built our house on shifting ground

Ignoring Heaven's cries

Your Word was once our banner

A light for all to see

But now it's just a memory

Of who we used to be

We've chased our selfish pleasures

And claimed they made us free

But freedom without Your truth, Lord

Is just captivity

We've got to turn back to You, Lord

And seek Your face again

For only You can heal this land

And make us whole within

Oh Lord, we've lost direction

Our hearts are filled with pride

We thought we stood unshaken

But now we're torn inside

Bring us back to mercy

To the place where grace begins

Oh Lord, we need Your presence

Let the humbling begin

Lord, bring us to our knees again

Strip away our pride

Show us where we've fallen short

And heal what's broken inside

If we don't change direction

This road will meet its end

Oh Lord, in all Your mercy

Let the humbling begin

Oh Lord, we've lost direction

Our hearts are filled with pride

We thought we stood unshaken

But now we're torn inside

Bring us back to mercy

To the place where grace begins

Oh Lord, we need Your presence

Let the humbling begin

Let the humbling begin, Lord

Let it start with me

Turn this heart of stone to flesh

And set this nation free

Let the humbling begin, Lord

We need Your grace again

Oh Lord, in all Your mercy

Let the humbling begin
