There was a time as a little boy When I said I'd follow you But the years have caused the flame To burn much stronger now And I'm not burning down any of my bridges But I'm burning up inside To flee from my religion and love my neighbour more
I'm not ashamed of the gospel I'm not ashamed of the one I love I'm not ashamed of the gospel I'm not ashamed of the one I love
There were times in my barreness When I felt your pure affection And you heard my frail petitions To serve you endlessly But have I loved the tree they put you on? Or my friend who met me at the cross? Oh I want to sing again for my brother And find my way down this mountain
I'm not ashamed anymore cos I've felt the oil pour down over me And there's a fire that's burning stronger now It's burning stronger much stronger For you only for you
