David Leonard - Light a Fire (CCM)

David Leonard - Light a Fire
On Friday, July 22, David Leonard shared new music with this track titled 'Light a Fire'. 

A prayer, so simple and pure, one that many will recognize in their own life. "Lord, restore to me the joy of my salvation. Please take me back to the beginning, when all I desired was your presence. Oh, how my life has changed because of you. Breathe again on the ambers and reignite that fire in my heart. A love taken back to the start."

We are happy to be able to share the lyrics with you. The official audio can be heard below.

Lyrics:

[Verse]
Restore to me the joy of my salvation
Take me back to where it all began
Where all I ever wanted was your presence
How I long to be there once again

[Chorus]
Light a fire
That the world can't burn out
Fan the flame
Till nothing between us remains
My life is an alter to you
Breathe again
On the ambers that burn In my heart
A love taken back to the start
My life is an alter to you

[Verse]
Renew in me a pure and willing Spirit
Take me back to where it all began
Oh, before it all became so complicated
Oh, how I long to be there once again

[Chorus]
Light a fire
That the world can't burn out
Fan the flame
Till nothing between us remains
My life is an alter to you
Breathe again
On the ambers that burn In my heart
A love taken back to the start
My life is an alter to you

[Bridge]
God I'm sorry
Please forgive me
For when I've gone cold
Lord I need you
How I need you
To awake my soul

[Chorus]
Light a fire
That the world can't burn out
Fan the flame
Till nothing between us remains
Yeah, my life is an alter to you, oh
Breathe again
On the ambers that burn In my heart
Yeah, a love taken back to the start
My life is an alter to you

[Bridge]
God I'm sorry
Please forgive me
(For when I've gone cold)
(Lord I need you)
(How I need you)
(To awake my soul)

"Gravity Of Grace" by Carli Lessing: The Pull You Can't Outrun

Can His grace really pull you back when you’ve drifted this far?  Gravity never asks permission. Drop something, anything, and it falls back to earth without effort or argument. Carli Lessing compares gravity with the way that grace works. You don’t fight your way back into God’s reach. He pulls you there.  The lyrics open with a familiar confession: “I don’t need to run away, hiding from the truth.” Running doesn’t hide anything from God anyway. He “sees every last mistake and selfish path I choose,” and despite that, He stays put. Carli admits she still catches herself trying to earn what God already gave away. That instinct runs deep in all of us. We dress up our effort and call it faith, all while missing the actual gift that is sitting in front of us.  Look at Ephesians 2:8–9: “For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast.”   Grace isn’t a result of our wo...

"Guard My Heart From Lies" by whispering HOPE: Fully Changed, Fully His, Fully Free

When the lies crowd in, where do you run for truth? There is a whisper that knows exactly when to show up in your head. You hear it in the quiet moments — when doubt creeps in, when old wounds resurface, when confusion floods the mind before you have had a chance to stand firm. whispering HOPE wrote “Guard My Heart From Lies” from the very place where our battles for truth are fought, not on a stage but in the silence of your own thoughts. The song opens with a striking scene: “There’s a whisper at the window, speaking shadows to my mind, trying hard to steal the promise of the life You said was mine.” This enemy doesn’t need to shout. A whisper is more than enough to trigger the rest, unless you know whose voice to follow. And that is the reminder found in this song: “I don’t have to strive for rest, Your finished work has called me blessed.” This kind of rest isn’t something you earn or give yourself after a hard week. It is already yours. 2 Corinthians 5:17 makes this clear: “If a...

"Thank God I'm Not" by We the Least: Why Your Limitations Are a Gift From God

Relief lives in knowing your limits. Imagine waking up tomorrow and being responsible for everything. Literally everything! Every language. Every cry for help. Every government, every planet, every orbit, every heartbeat — it’s yours to manage, alone, forever. Now, that idea is quite overwhelming and would probably feel like a nightmare, isn’t it? We the Least captured that overwhelming thought in their song “Thank God I’m Not,” a song that turns our human limitations into another reason to worship. The message of the song is simple and liberating: God does a much better job at being God than we ever could!  The lyrics walk us through the impossible math of omnipotence —  “I’d have to hold the universe and make the planet spin with my own two hands.” No sleep. No rest. Being present everywhere, absolutely right every time, and being the greatest by a long shot. Just listing it down is exhausting, but that exhaustion and overwhelm are exactly the point that Skylar is trying to make...
