Pressure to make a Diamond

Lyrics

(Verse 1)
Deep in the cavern, a work left undone,
A vision so brilliant, yet time's on the run.
Wires and tubes, a design so grand,
But the weight of delay slips through her hands.

(Pre-Chorus)
Where is the fire, where is the fight?
A spark that will burn through the endless night.
Creation is waiting, the time is now,
Will you rise up, will you allow?

(Chorus)
I have given you a patronage, a pressure to refine,
Not to break you down, but to make you shine.
What feels like burden, what feels like pain,
Is shaping the diamond through fire and rain.
So rise up, rise up, let the work be done,
The trial is shaping what you'll become.

(Verse 2)
Tears in her eyes, trembling with fear,
The weight of the calling too heavy to bear.
But diamonds aren't made in the light of ease,
They're formed in the depths, in pressure's squeeze.

(Pre-Chorus)
Where is the fire, where is the fight?
A spark that will burn through the endless night.
Creation is waiting, the time is now,
Will you rise up, will you allow?

(Chorus)
I have given you a patronage, a pressure to refine,
Not to break you down, but to make you shine.
What feels like burden, what feels like pain,
Is shaping the diamond through fire and rain.
So rise up, rise up, let the work be done,
The trial is shaping what you'll become.

(Bridge)
Oh, passion for Jesus, burn in our hearts,
Like fire in the furnace, refining our parts.
Won’t You breathe in us, once again,
Turn the pressure to purpose, let glory begin.

(Outro)
The veil is torn, the work’s not in vain,
Through all of the struggle, there's beauty in pain.
A diamond is rising, it's breaking through,
The patronage of pressure was given to you.
