We are slaves to these age old afflictions
Fighting for control until we fell too far
Pursue desire, ignore our convictions
Only wretched souls beneath the weeping stars
We are calling out in the thick of the war
I am standing down to fight for something more
Would we cease the battles let this love resound
Still too hard to find our common ground
There's a fire that stays bold and courageous
There's a light to light the way
And we try so hard to heal our diseases
We break to pieces when our hope has failed
Some will live or die, without a reason
Such are the seasons still our faith prevails
We are lost and found and beg to be restored
We keep falling down, harder than before
But love will find a way to give us strength to carry on
Sorrow for now but someday soon be gone
There's a fire that stays bold and courageous
There's a light to light the way
So we come and go it's still a mystery
And we'll be history long before we find
All the secrets since now and forever
We hope for better on the other side
God, hear the cries of your people
There's a fire that stays bold and courageous
There's a light to light the way
