I Need a Ghost
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I don't need the smoke or mirrors
'Cause I know there's a God who's real
I don't need the lights to fool me
'Cause I have seen the God who heals
I know when I ask I'll receive it
'Cause You're not a God who withholds
I hear You say "Just believe me"
I need a Holy Ghost, awaken in my soul
I need a love that glows, rattling my bones 'til the evidence shows
I need a Holy Ghost, awaken in my soul
I need a heart on fire that'll never grow tired wherever I go
I need a Holy, Holy, Ghost, I need a Ghost
Holy, Holy, Ghost, I need a Ghost
I don't need a counterfeit comfort
'Cause nothing in this world remains
I need something stronger than lightning
Flowing inside of these veins
I need a Holy Ghost, awaken in my soul
I need a love that glows, rattling my bones 'til the evidence shows
I need a Holy Ghost, awaken in my soul
I need a heart on fire that'll never grow tired wherever I go
I need a Holy, Holy, Ghost, I need a Ghost
Holy, Holy, Ghost, I need a Ghost
You're the fire I can't even explain it
It's like I'm bursting with a Heavenly language
And every time I get a taste I know I just want more, I just want more
You're the kingdom that's been growing inside me
It's like a lion's roar that wants to revive me
And every time I get a taste I know I just want more
I need a Holy Ghost, awaken in my soul
I need a love that glows, rattling my bones 'til the evidence shows
I need a Holy Ghost, awaken in my soul
I need a heart on fire that'll never grow tired wherever I go
I need a Holy, Holy, Ghost, I need a Ghost
Holy, Holy, Ghost, I need a Ghost
Holy, Holy, Ghost, I need a Ghost
Holy, Holy, Ghost, I need a Ghost
