The World Is Wide Open
Jason Upton

There is a power in poverty that breaks principalities

It brings the authorities down to their knees


There is a brewing frustration and an ageless temptation

To fight for control by manipulation


The God of the Kingdoms and God of Creation, God of the Nations

Sent this revelation through the homeless and penniless Jesus the Son

The poor will inherit the Kingdom to come


Where will we turn when our world falls apart

And all of the treasures we stored in our barns,

Can't buy the Kingdom of God?


And who will we praise when we've praised all our lives,

Men who build kingdoms and men who build fame, but Heaven does not know their names?


And what are we gonna fear,

When all that remains is a God on the throne with a child in his arms

And love in His eyes?


And the sound of His heart crying...


Take us way beyond religion

Way beyond the minds of man

Take us way beyond religion

Way beyond the minds of man

Take us way beyond politics and the ways of the world

Oh deeper, deeper, deeper, deeper, deeper, deeper,

We want to go deeper


Deeper into the ways of you Jesus

Teach us how to love, teach us how to love, teach us how to love,

Teach me, teach me how to love, teach me how to love

Teach us... Teach us how to love


The world is wide open

The world is wide open

The world is wide open

It's wide open

It's wide open

It's wide open

It's wide open

Teach us how to love

Teach us how to love

Teach us your ways Jesus

We want to walk in your truth


Sons and daughters of the living God

Sons and daughters of the living God

Sons and daughters of the living God

All of heaven is waiting on us

It's waiting

It's waiting

It's waiting

It's waiting

Were waiting

I hear all of creation crying, We're waiting

We're waiting

We're waiting

We're waiting

We're waiting


Show us how to love


Stop Telling Us... That You're The Chosen People,

Start Living Like A Chosen People


Jason, I'm calling your name

Bryan, I'm calling your name

I'm calling your name

I'm calling your name

I'm Calling your name


Every son and daughter in the Church today...

I'm calling your name

Teach them

Teach them


That my ways are far beyond the ways of man

My ways are far beyond religion

My ways, my ways, are far beyond one people

My ways, my ways, are higher than your ways

There higher than your ways, higher than your ways

There higher than your ways


Teach them how to love

The world is wide open

Teach us how to love


Calling on you...

Waiting on you


Sons and daughters, sons and daughters, sons and daughters

Of the living god


It's time, it's time

We are,

Sons and daughters of the living God

Sons and daughters of the living God
