Steven Curtis Chapman - Dont Let The Fire Die Lyrics

(Steven Curtis Chapman)

[Heb 12:2-3, 1 Thess 5:19]

I can still feel the prayers you prayed for me all those years
And I see now more than ever what a difference they have made
And I can still hear your words spoken from a heart of great concern
Saying keep your eyes on Jesus and love Him more than anything
And I've watched the wind blow hard against you
And I've seen your faith get weakened by the pain
And I want you to know that I will be praying for you to hold on

[Chorus:]
Don't let the fire die
The flame has been dimmed by the tears that you've cried
But I can still see the spark of His love in your eyes
So don't let the fire, please don't let the fire die

This heavy weight you carry around
Of letting yourself and everybody down
Is pouring water on the passion that used to burn so bright
Well I know you've got your reasons for resentment
And I know it's more than I can understand
So just let me say that I'm gonna be praying for you
To let it all go

[Chorus:]
Don't let the fire die
The flame has been dimmed by the tears that you've cried
But I can still see the spark of His love in your eyes

[Bridge:]
I'm not praying for the fire to burn the way it did before
'Cause I believe the one who started this flame in your heart
He wants to give you more
So don't let the fire die
