On Fire
Audacious Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Rising up the sound of your people
Be lifted up in a shout of praise
You're the one who broke the darkness
Every nation run into your light
Pre-Chorus:
We're gonna lift you higher
We're gonna lift you higher
We're gonna lift you up
Chorus:
My life, on fire
I'm gonna shine for the world to see
My one desire
To see your power at work in me
Never gonna let fear take hold of me
Never gonna let fear take hold of me
'Cos we are free
Bridge:
Never gonna let fear take hold of me
I'm gonna lift you higher
Never gonna let fear take hold of me
I'm gonna lift you higher
The song "On Fire" by Audacious speaks about rising up as a community to praise and lift up the name of God. The lyrics in the first verse appear to be an invitation to all people to come and join in the praise to lift up the name of God. The writer speaks of breaking the darkness and letting the light in, which could mean the redemption and salvation that comes from faith in God. The idea is that when we come together to worship, we not only lift ourselves up, but we are also a beacon of light to the rest of the world. The pre-chorus emphasizes the message of lifting up God's name in praise, indicating that this is the reason to come together as a community.
The chorus is a personal testimony of the writer's devotion to God. The lines 'My life, on fire / I'm gonna shine for the world to see / My one desire / To see your power at work in me' illustrate their commitment and the desire to let God's power be seen through them. The writer asserts that they will not let fear hold them down and that they are free in God's love. The bridge brings the song full circle, reiterating that they will not be held back by fear, but instead will continue to lift God's name higher.
