Burnin'

Started rubbing sticks together
Thought a spark would take forever
Never dreamt this fire would appear
When Moses saw the bush in flames
And heard the branches speak his name
I wonder if he felt this kind of fear
Cause I'm burnin'
Yeah, I'm burnin'
And I know I'm gonna blister in these flames
And I'll stay here
Till this smoke clears
And I'll find you in the ashes that remain
Used to be that I could say
My faith was one arm's length away
From any flame that ever felt too warm
Asked for matches, but I received
A gallon full of gasoline
Now my cozy campfire days are gone
I'm burnin'
I'm burnin'
I know I'm gonna blister in these flames
But I'll stay here
Till this smoke clears
And I'll find you in the ashes that remain
Knock with caution at the door
They said, "Beware of what you're praying for"
So I'll stand here with my whole desire
In the middle of this forest fire
Till I've nothing left to show
And new life begins to grow
Cause I'm burnin'
Yeah, I'm burnin'
And I know I'm gonna blister in these flames
I'll stay here
Till this smoke clears
And I'll find you in the ashes that remain, remain
