He who opens the breach goes up before them;

they break through and pass the gate,

going out by it.

Their king passes on before them,

the Lord at their head.  (Micah 2:13, ESV)

God of Heaven
Creator of all
Grand builder of creation 
You fashion, You form

You are the grand architect 
You are the master builder
You are the original originator 
You are the first cause

Yours is the infinite mind
Your is the genius intellect
Yours is the master designer 
Setting Yourself to establish

Destroying should be foreign 
Tearing down should be alien
Breaking should be outlandish 
To one whose existence speaks life 

And yet, here you are
The strong, bold breaker
Tearing down prisons
Destroying bondage

That new life might be set free 
That freedom might come
That a future might be found
With You, the originator of all.

There should be no need to
Break anything 
Yet sin has ensured
The need

Yet even in the breaking
You build, You create
Even in the demolishing 
You establish and make new

You are The Breaker
Who establishes freedom
You are the destroyer 
Who brings life from death

May we ever follow at Your heels
Letting You lead
Into the life You have prepared 
For those who trust and come.
