lyrics

We carved stones.
Into images of our design.
We gazed upon these empty muses devoid of life
We surrendered our adoration, submitting to our gods in vain prostration.

We erect our high places as monuments stating our abominations.
Our shrines litter the lands as bastions of the gods we fashioned with our hands...
Our children pass through the fire to ensure that we have all we desire.
Harvest and peace in our land. Is it worth it all? I can't understand...
I remember One who called us by name. Out of bondage and into promise with His mighty hand.

Who is this Great God? Before whom mountains melt like wax! Who is this mighty King? Who strikes fear into His enemies!

My name is Josiah I found the Lord's law it was long forgotten...
How long have we defaced our land with these idols made by our very hands
Great God what have we done? Turning our hearts towards the earth and sun...
We have forgotten the One who created us all beneath the heavens

What have we done? Turned ourselves away from you God!
What have we done? Made a mockery of your commands!
What have we done? Brought a curse upon our land!
What have I done! I've let this happen!

Iconoclasm, the time has come to tear our idols down.
Iconoclasm, we will make Your name great again!

Tear down the shrines, tear down the temples, bring the high places down.
Raze them to the ground!
Purge us!

We are all idols with skin on. Worshipping ourselves and the works of our hands. We try to remain but, we can't stay... We are not any kind of permanence. We will fade away... Look to the One who was, look to the one who is and will remain...
