AND HE SET ME ON FIRE
And I am burning alive
With His breath in my lungs
I am coming undone
And I cannot hold it in
And remain composed
Love’s taken over me, and so I propose
The letting myself go
I am letting myself go
You are my joy, You are my joy
You are my joy, You are my joy
I need to catch my breath, I need to
I need to catch my breath, give me a moment now
I’m laughing so hard, and I’m laughing so hard, and I’m laughing so hard
David Crowder
