"I Need A Ghost" lyrics

"I Need A Ghost"

I don't need the smoke or mirrors
'Cause I know there's a God who's real
I don't need the lights to fool me
'Cause I have seen the God who heals

I know when I ask I'll receive it
'Cause You're not a God who withholds
I hear You say "Just believe me"

I need a Holy Ghost, awaken in my soul
I need a love that glows rattling my bones 'til the evidence shows
I need a Holy Ghost, awaken in my soul
I need a heart on fire that'll never grow tired wherever I go

I need a Holy, Holy, Ghost, I need a Ghost
Holy, Holy, Ghost, I need a Ghost

I don't need a counterfeit comfort
'Cause nothing in this world remains
I need something stronger than lightning
Flowing inside of these veins

I need a Holy Ghost, awaken in my soul
I need a love that glows rattling my bones 'til the evidence shows
I need a Holy Ghost, awaken in my soul
I need a heart on fire that'll never grow tired wherever I go

I need a Holy, Holy, Ghost, I need a Ghost
Holy, Holy, Ghost, I need a Ghost

You're the fire I can't even explain it
It's like I'm bursting with a Heavenly language
And every time I get a taste I know I just want more, I just want more
You're the kingdom that's been growing inside me
It's like a lion's roar that wants to revive me
And every time I get a taste I know I just want more

I need a Holy Ghost, awaken in my soul
I need a love that glows rattling my bones 'til the evidence shows
I need a Holy Ghost, awaken in my soul
I need a heart on fire that'll never grow tired wherever I go

I need a Holy, Holy, Ghost, I need a Ghost
Holy, Holy, Ghost, I need a Ghost
Holy, Holy, Ghost, I need a Ghost
Holy, Holy, Ghost, I need a Ghost

Brandon Lake said about "I Need A Ghost" on Instagram on the 21st of July 2020, "I don't need flashy lights. I don't need smoke or mirrors. I don't need to be entertained to feel alive. I need something stronger. Stronger than lightening. I need it in my bones. I need it in my veins. I need a ghost. The ghost. The Holy one. The Holy Ghost."
"The track came to me unlike any other song I'd ever received," Brandon Lake explained about this song, "It was dropped into my spirit as I was sitting in my car and I wrote the entire song without an instrument. It's an honest reflection of what I was feeling and wanted to say in that moment."
