Carry The Flame

Verse 1

I was quiet, I was hiding in the crowd

Kept my faith low, never spoke it out loud

Felt the fire, but I held it in my chest

Too afraid that I would fail the test

But You said, “Go into the world and speak”

Not the strong, but You chose the weak

Now I hear You in every breath I take

This silence is a line I can’t keep

Pre-Chorus

You lit a fire I can’t contain

Now every word will speak Your name

Chorus

I’ll carry the flame into the night

Shine Your truth, be Your light

Every street, every broken place

I will preach Your love and grace

I won’t hide, I won’t be ashamed

I will stand and proclaim Your name

Till the world hears every word I say

Jesus, You are the only way

Verse 2

To the lost, to the ones in doubt

To the hearts that are crying out

There’s a hope they’ve never known

And a truth that will lead them home

I’ve seen chains fall at Your name

Seen dead hearts burst into flame

If You could save a soul like mine

Then I know You can do the same

Pre-Chorus

No more fear, no more delay

You are the truth, the life, the way

Chorus

I’ll carry the flame into the night

Shine Your truth, be Your light

Every street, every broken place

I will preach Your love and grace

I won’t hide, I won’t be ashamed

I will stand and proclaim Your name

Till the world hears every word I say

Jesus, You are the only way

Bridge (Lift / Light Intensity)

Send me out, I will go

Even where I don’t know

Give me words, give me boldness

Let my life reflect Your holiness

Even if my voice shakes

Even if my heart breaks

I will speak, I will stand

With Your truth in my hands

Final Chorus (Big, but still controlled)

I’ll carry the flame into the night

Lift You high, be Your light

Every soul, every nation

Hear the sound of salvation

I won’t hide, I won’t be ashamed

I will live to proclaim Your name

Till my last breath fades away

Jesus, You are the only way

Outro (Soft)

In the silence, let me speak

To the strong and to the weak

Let my life be more than words

Let it echo what they’ve heard
