There's an eagle deep inside of me, that longs to soar upon the clouds.
But those neglected aspirations are wasting away to feather and bone.
Give me food to fly… I need to fly.
This lack of passion, fueled by complacency
has paralyzed my walk, has blotted out my vision
But this war rages on, as I'm blinded by my sleep
and a battle never fought is still defeat.
Burn, burn this apathy with fire,
Until my slights turn to desperate desire
Jesus burn, burn, burn…
Reach into my chest, and grip me by the heart.
Pull it close to yours until my soul begins to roar.
(Repeat 4x)
I want your presence to be where I cannot help but weep.
Where your goodness overwhelms me and I cannot keep my feet.
That
My tongue would shake behind my teeth, so it cannot rest until I speak
of the riches found in Jesus Christ, and the power of His sacrifice.
Burn, burn this apathy with fire,
Until my slights turn to desperate desire
Jesus burn, burn, burn…
