The Story

This song is a raw, personal plea for personal sanctification. It mirrors the imagery of Jesus cleansing the temple to illustrate the internal work of clearing out our pride, greed, and worldly distractions from our heart. We need the Lord to take full control and restore the heart as a true house of prayer because we cannot change it ourselves.

Associated Scripture

Lyrics

[Verse 1] There’s a noise inside these temple walls There’s a clutter in these hallowed halls I’ve traded mercy for an earthly gain And hidden worship behind my pain But I hear the sound of the Savior’s feet Walking the stones of my own retreat. [Chorus] Flip the tables! Clear the way! Be the Master of this house today! Drive the robbers from my soul Come and make the broken whole! Dear Jesus, flip the tables of my heart! [Verse 2] You swept the floor and You cleared the air To make a room for a simple prayer You saw the thieves and You drove them out You silenced the greed and the worldly shout Now take the whip to my hidden pride And let Your Spirit move inside. [Chorus] Flip the tables! Clear the way! Be the Master of this house today! Drive the robbers from my soul Come and make the broken whole! Dear Jesus, flip the tables of my heart! [Bridge] My heart is a house of prayer! Let nothing but Love live there! Cleanse this temple and heal this land IN THE POWER OF THE SAVIOR’S HAND! [Chorus] Flip the tables! Clear the way! Be the Master of this house today! Drive the robbers from my soul Come and make the broken whole! Dear Jesus, flip the tables of my heart! [Outro] May my heart be a house of prayer And the thieves be ushered out. Remove any doubt!
