Verse 1

Restore in me the joys 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 1

Light a fire
That the world can’t burn out
Fan the flame
Till nothing between us remains
My life is an altar to You
Breathe again
On the embers that burn in my heart
A love taken back to the start
My life is an altar to You

Verse 2

Renew in me a pure and willing spirit
Take me back to where it all began
Before it all became so complicated
How I long to be there once again

Chorus 1

Light a fire
That the world can’t burn out
Fan the flame
Till nothing between us remains
My life is an altar to You
Breathe again
On the embers that burn in my heart
A love taken back to the start
My life is an altar to You

God I’m sorry
Please forgive me
For when I’ve gone cold

How I need You
To awake my soul
