When David Crowder first started writing music, he mainly focused on lyrics that discussed the difficult things he was going through. At that time there were not many congregational worship songs that did that so he struck a chord with many people.
Today, David says that he writes many of his songs while riding in the car in the country with his wife. Even though his audience has changed, though, David always writes his songs with his University Baptist Church congregation in mind.
Lift Your Head Weary Sinner Lyrics
lift your head weary sinner
the river’s just ahead
down the path of forgiveness
salvation’s waiting there
you built a mighty fortress
10,000 burdens high
love is here to lift you up
here to lift you high
if you’re lost and wandering
come stumbling in like a prodigal child
see the walls start crumbling
let the gates of glory open wide
all who’ve strayed and walked away
unspeakable things you’ve done
fix your eyes on the mountain
let the past be dead and gone
come all saints and sinners
you can’t outrun God
whatever you’ve done
can’t overcome the power of the blood
if youre lost and wandering
come stumbling in like a prodigal child
see the walls start crumbling
let the gates of glory open wide
if youre lost and wrecked again
come stumbling in like a prodigal child
see the walls start crumbling
let the gates of glory open wide
if you are lost and wandering
come stumbling in like a prodigal child
see the walls start crumbling
let the gates of glory open wide
if youre lost and wrecked gain
come stumbling in like a prodigal child
see the walls start crumbling
let the gates of glory open wide
let the gates of glory open wide
let the gates of glory open wide
