Just turned on the computer and started worshipping. Dunno if it even rhymes...
acoustic guitar, female vocalist, Christian, Jesus, God, folk, rock, blues, home studio, country
Well let's see. I have been playing acoustic guitar for 12 years, or playing "at" it. You decide. Been singing since I learned how to talk. Just finished competing in WCOPA 2010 in LA and it was so neat playing worship songs with other countries and Trinidad! Shout to Jessie and the others in Trinidad- you guys are awesome!
Story behind the song
Well the Bible says that our body is the temple, and it also says that God inhabits the praises of His people. So I kinda look at this body, unworthy as it is, this heart, as God's little house. I make him a throne in it, I put on a pot of coffee, make Him feel at home. Only sometimes I start praising him and I feel like I missed Him cuz I got busy and He seemed so far away. So in this song, I'm waiting at the table, listening for the door, 'cuz I know He's coming, and I wait for him like a lover who jumps for joy at the sight of her love. So here he is, I'm running for the door, throwing it wide... Here is your temple, Come on home, Lord.
Lyrics
Sometimes it feels like it's been a while since I've seen you, Lord.
Even now I feel your holy presence down in my very soul.
I'm not worthy of your presence.
Still I long for you Jesus, for your holy touch
Cuz I miss you so much.
Lord I've prepared ap lace for you in my heart,
It's the very whole of it, it's all of me Lord
Lord I'm waiting for you, waiting for you Lord with open arms.
To welcome before you Lord, this temple of my body is waiting for you, Oh Lord to
To do as you will Lord, change what you need to
To make this a place where you can dwell...
Lord here's your temple
Lord here's your temple
Come on home.
I put a pot of coffee on and I'm waiting at the table
Cuz I want to talk to you.
I been watchin' the door, waiting for you
Cuz my Lord I need you, Oh Lord.
I know you- you're the husband of my heart.
And I- Lord, I am your Bride.
Oh Lord- there you are.
There's your voice, Lord I am
Runnin to the door- I am
Swingin it wideopen and I'm
Kneelin on the floor, Oh Lord....
I praise you, I love you, Oh Lord
Oh Lord

My body and my whole life, for you to dwell in
Change what you need to
Do what you want to.
I'm yours.
Oh Lord,

Here is your tmeple, Come on home.
OH Lord yes, my body is your temple Lord
Here is your temple , Come on home...
My Jesus,

Who comforts me in my time of need.
Even muttering your name sends a tingle down my spine.
Cuz I know that you are mine. Cuz I love you, cuz I love you Lord.
So here is your temple,Lord. Here is your temple, Come on home.
Change what you need to, Lord. Here is your temple, Lord. Here is your temple, Come on home.
