World on Fire (a new song)

I have searched
All my life for love that never ends
And I have found it
In the one who has called us friends

If we are his body
If we are his arms
We can hold each other's pain
We're brother and sister
We're daughter and son
And together we hear him say

"I came to set the world on fire"
We will be his kindling
And our hearts will be consumed by mercy
We will burn so brightly

Just look around
If you ever doubt true love exists
Just look, look around
Beyond the world's deceptive kiss

There's hope for the broken
There's love for the lost
We don't have to feel alone
Where two lonely hearts
Sit together in Christ
They're no longer on their own

And he said
"I came to set the world on fire"
We will be his kindling
And our hearts will be consumed by mercy
We will burn so brightly

Listen, I will tell you a mystery
We will not all die
But we will all, all be changed
In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye
At the last trumpet
The trumpet will sound
And the dead will be raised
And we will all, all be changed

And he said
"I came to set the world on fire"
We will be his kindling
And our hearts will be consumed by mercy
We will burn so brightly

It's our time to set the world on fire
We will be his kindling
And our love will be a blaze of glory
We will burn so brightly
