Hurricane



This song by Jimmy Needham is one of our favorites to perform. It's about a person who is at the end of his rope and needs God desperately. The first verse (not included in this video) talks how much time we waste setting up walls of protection, when all we really need is for God to "tear down" the walls of our old hearts and make us new:

I have built a city here
Half with pride and half with fear
Just wanted a safer place to hide
I don’t want to be safe tonight

CHORUS
I need You like a hurricane
Thunder crashing, wind and rain
To tear my walls down
I’m only Yours now
I need you like a burning flame
A wild fire untamed
To burn these walls down
I’m only Yours now
I’m only Yours now
