    You know how I usually pick out specific lyrics that hit home for me?

    Well, I’ll tell ya what…it was hard for me to pick out just a few lyrics on this song. They are all good. It’s a little rap-like, but I love it. TobyMac is awesome when it comes to grabbing my attention. And the words are great, too!

    I picked these few lyrics, but below is a link to read them all if you like.

    **
    I know you’re all alone in a crowd full of friends
    I can see it in your eyes that your fadin’ again
    Checking out, moving into your hole
    Where the light can’t touch any part of your soul
    But hold up and let the river rush in
    You can turn around and start livin’ again
    Cause your life is a beautiful bloom
    In the image of the one that created you

    And I’ll keep the light on, for you
    Just keep the course, you can weather the storm
    I’ll keep the light on, for you
    You’ve come this far, don’t you ever lose heart, now

    Burn for You, by TobyMac

    I was listening to KLove the other day and heard this song. The energy, the beat, and the words nailed me! Bigtime. I love to find songs that pump me up for a long run, hard bike ride, and a major write-fest (to use my friend JC’s word).

    This song fit the bill on ALL levels!

    I love the part where he sings, “I feel revived again, I am alive again; You got me lifted and lifted you life me up; I feel revived again, I’m energized again; You got me lifted and lifed you lift me up.

    I love when I find a song that can remind me that really, the only one who can truly lift me up is God. He meets me NO MATTER where I am.
