Rrrrraaaaa!
Yeah!
...as in the days of old the Glory fills the temple of the Lord
We are your temple
We are your temple
This burning deep inside of my heart
These lips adorned with praise
My hands raised in worship lost
In the wonder of your ways
Come now and take your place Lord
Bring forth new winds of change
Set our lives ablaze with fire
Bring down your Heavenly rain
We are your temple...
Bring away the darkness of sin
Fill these hands with seeds of truth
Show the path and I will follow
Let your Spirit lead me through
This hunger taking over my life
This thirst for Heavenly ways
These eyes are filled with visions
This heart your dwelling place
Come reign here Holy Spirit
Bring forth a storm of change
Set our tongues ablaze with fire
Bring down your Heavenly Glory, Glory
You made these hands
Now take these hands
Lord fill these hands
Lord fill these hands with seeds of truth
Bring your fire down!
Glory
Fire
Power
Shekinah
About This Song
"Shekinah" is a passionate contemporary Christian rock anthem that calls upon God's divine presence to fill believers as living temples, drawing from the Hebrew concept of Shekinah as God's dwelling glory. The song weaves together Old Testament imagery of God's glory filling Solomon's temple with the New Testament teaching that Christians themselves are God's temple, creating a bridge between ancient worship and modern faith. Musically, it features driving rock instrumentation that builds intensity throughout, with soaring vocals that mirror the spiritual ascension described in the lyrics. The song explores themes of spiritual transformation, purification from sin, and the desire for divine renewal, as the narrator pleads for God's fire to "burn away the darkness" and bring "new winds of change." Its distinctive power lies in combining reverent worship language with rock energy, making ancient theological concepts accessible and emotionally stirring for contemporary audiences. The repeated declaration "We are your temple" serves as both confession and invitation, emphasizing the personal and communal nature of divine presence.
