Cannot Keep You
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.
They tried to keep you in a tent
They could not keep you in a temple
Or any of their idols, to see and understand
We cannot keep you in a church
We cannot keep you in a bible
Or it's just another idol to box you in
They could not keep you in their walls
We cannot keep you in ours either
You are so much greater
Who is like the lord?
The maker of the heavens
Who dwells with the poor
And he lifts them from the ashes
And seats them among princes
Who is like the lord?
We've tried to keep you in our tents
We've tried to keep you in our temples
We've worshiped all our idols,
We want all that to end
We will find you in the streets
We will find you in the prisons
And even in our bibles and churches
We cannot contain
Cannot contain
The glory of your name
Who is like the lord
You took me from the ashes
And you healed me of my blindness
Who is like the lord
