about

Recorded in Ashton-under Lyme 8 July 1988
Originally recorded by The Bond and released on the album 'Prints Of Peace' (1988).

lyrics

Before you came and found me I was lost
On Chaos's white horses turned and tossed
With a word you pacified the waves
Set my feet upon a road that leads to resurrection morning

Gateway into Heaven, may I come through you
Gateway into Heaven, no other way will do

Dancing in the way you draw me near
You are overwhelming draw me near
Love can be alarming when it's this real
Love that accepts crucifixion
Just to bring us to communion

Chorus

You are like a treasure house a home
Toward which all the lost and weary roam
When we pray your spirit lifts us high
Lifts us through a curtain torn from top to bottom
Waving in your breeze

Chorus

Holy Spirit burning out so bright
Illuminating even darkest night
Crowning those who love you with new life
O come Lord Jesus come and lead us home with you
Toward the end of strife

Chorus

This is an absolutely fantastic collection featuring near perfect newer run-downs of the Atlantis suite and Wedge tracks (with Rat Racing being my definitive entrance to this period, wonderful) as well as great and heavy concert sessions of The Cross and the Crucible and Sanctuary (personal favourite). My favourite bundle so far. futureperfect93
