I’m running through the gates of love, as fast as I can
I can’t wait to see You I’m a desperate man
You made the light and sent it down
to show us who You are
Now It’s bursting out my heart

My desire is burning like a million stars
And I’ll keep reaching out, reaching out for You
My desire, is burning with the fire You sparked
And I’ll keep reaching out, reaching out for You

I’d be nothing without You, yeah I would die
If I didn’t have Your hand if I couldn’t look into Your eyes
Jesus if Your love’s the fuel then I’m the desperate flame
That’s screaming out Your name

This is glory rising, over a new horizon
I See Your love, I feel Your smile
Your in my heart and I will run with all I have to You




Behind the Song:
"This song is about a longing to be with God and yearning for His presence. It’s about wanting to run deeper into Him, to know Him more, to continue moving forward. I had all of the music and melody written for this song a while before I sat down to write the lyrics. But Once I did sit down with a pen and a piece of paper it wasn’t very hard. The lyrics just spilled out onto the paper. The whole feel of the song is hopeful. Kind of like joy and urgency wrapped up in a bunch of drums, bass, electric guitars" - Phil Wickham
