Let Me Burn
Jeff Deyo Lyrics

You are the stream that flows in the desert
You are the source of life and hope that sustains me even in the midst of difficult and barren times.

Reviving my heart and flooding my soul
You restore my spirit and give me a sense of purpose and passion in life.

You are the flame that splits through the darkness
You are the light that shines through my darkest moments, illuminating my path and giving me clarity and direction.

To burn up my sin and point where to go
You purify me of my wrongdoing and guide me towards living a life that aligns with your divine will.

And I worship you
I express my adoration and reverence towards you.

Strait to you I run
I come to you directly and without hesitation.

Lord my cry is this
I am calling out to you in earnestness and sincerity.

That your will be done
I am praying that your plans and purposes for my life will come to fruition.

Let the nations rejoice in you
May people from all over the world find joy and fulfillment in their relationship with you.

Let your people return to you
May those who have strayed from your path come back to you and find restoration.

Let the source of my life be you
May you be the driving force and motivation behind everything that I do.

Let me burn for you
May I live my life with fervor and passion for your glory.

Let your fire of justice reign
May you bring about justice and equity in the world through your divine power and intervention.

Let creation confess your name
May all of the earth acknowledge and praise your holy name.

Turn my heart from stone to clay
May you soften my heart and make me more moldable and receptive to your guidance and leading.

Let me burn with praise
May I overflow with gratitude and adoration for you and all that you've done for me.

You are the wind that moves through the stillness
You are the force that drives my life forward, even in the times where everything seems stagnant and immovable.

Removing my doubts and lifting my wings
You lift me up and give me the ability to soar when I am feeling weighed down by uncertainty and fear.

You are the rock that's there in the quicksand
You are the steady and unchanging presence that I can cling to even when everything else feels unstable and chaotic.

To crush all your foes and steady my feet
You are the ultimate victor over evil and opposition, and you give me the strength and stability to stand firm in the face of adversity.

Singing songs of joy
I am expressing my happiness and delight in you through music and praise.

Love your kingdom come
I am praying for the eventual and ultimate triumph of your kingdom on earth.

Oh, with praise, yeah
I continue to express my joy and appreciation towards you through song and celebration.

Have mercy, have mercy
I humbly ask for your compassion and forgiveness in my shortcomings and failings.

Let me burn, let me burn, let me burn with praise
May I be consumed by your love and passion, and express it outwards through my actions and attitudes.

Ooo, with praise
I am overflowing with gratitude and thankfulness towards you.
