The Open Door, 2010 - 2017 || Albums

This song comes from a frequent prayer we pray for the Holy People: that God would open the door for them to "go out" - based on Revelation 3:7 and also the prophecy of the woman who is given wings of an eagle to fly away to a place prepared for her in Revelation 12. We sing this song as a prayer for ourselves and for those whose ears and eyes are open to God's leading. It is one of our most frequently sung songs as a family.
