Almost had given up Lost sight of the light Walls were falling And closing in Remembered thy judgments Thy word quickened me All was leveled Just to begin We’re broken These trials make whole These lessons From one to extol Refusing to let you tear me down Rebuilding this temple from the ground Refusing to let you tear me down Rebuilding this temple from the ground True friends aren’t lining up You lost my respect Still I forgave That you betrayed Suppressed the pressures of Death, loss and disease Now there’s something I want to say You’ve got a lot of nerve Appalled by what you served Another lesson learned That’s your bridge that you burned Unbroken A vow to uphold Unspoken The name to extol Refusing to let you tear me down Rebuilding this temple from the ground Refusing to let you tear me down Rebuilding this temple from the ground Refusing to let you tear me down Rebuilding this temple from the ground Refusing to let you tear me down Rebuilding this temple from the ground
